Slab,

Not quite true. The lake fishery is a higher priority than the river recreational fishery because censusing the fish through the trap facilitates more precise management. When the forecast is for a large run, you'll see river recreational seasons scheduled. The treaty fishery is second only to conservation as a matter of case law, but pretty much everyone here already knew that. Tribal management could avail itself of the precision that the trap offers, but they don't favor that approach.
