The way I see it is that the state F&G is scared to cause any conflicts among the natives. We as sportfishermen do pay a lot of fees and do our part to keep our rivers thriving for the future. But is our future for the good of the natives only? I think that affirmitive action does not belong here.
I am not jealous that I cant fish at the ladder but I am frustruated when their is no limits for the natives as far as fishing goes. I saw a guy that weekend carry a least a dozen fish back to his car. we need to estabalish a fair rule of play here, and that is I don't know. I guess the best thing is buy a license and follow the rules and that is fair enough.
