I wonder if there's a "rest of the story", or if this picture really is the story....

Interesting article in their own publication; especially the part about how a glut of farm raised Atlantic salmon has depressed salmon prices therefore justifying the switch to eggs as a saleable product. Is that somehow intended to justify what the picture has now captured?

Now, if the Tribe and/or the NWIFC wants to set the record straight (thereby avoiding all of the unsubstantiated conjecture) they could/should (or already should have) be issuing an explanatory news release as to what their accepted practice is, how the picture represents a violation of that practice/Tribal regulation, and what is being done to punish the perps to include a later after action summary - chances of that are zip/zero as we know.
