thanks for the info and update bushbear and ondarvr. That does give more context.

Do the tribes agree that their impact is 74%? If so, what is their logic for demanding that sporties give more?

In the article, Tony Floor says that the big tribe to get an agreement from is the Muckleshoots. IIRC last year that tribe recommended there be NO summer sportfishing season for puget sound chinook. What is the likelihood they will actually come to an agreement?

So if they can't, what are the next steps for resolution...governor, and failing that, federal court?
