I wasn't going to be the radical to make that suggestion outright - sort of hinted at it vis a vis the Wallace hatchery increased output and a lot more eggs to the Tulalips. So what do we get in return? Reduced opportunity in the salt and no in-river fishery because there aren't enough getting back to the hatchery to..........give eggs to the tribe and support the increased output at our expense.

The Non-sequitor of that scenario is simple enough for even me to grasp.
