You need those numbers.


I have the data print out of all fisheries that could have an impact on the Lake Washington Chinook in the state of Washington from the ocean, strait, and Puget Sound. The highest impact is from the tribe who is hollering the loudest with 132.The second largest is the tribal troll in area 3:4 with 39.The Area 10 sport fishery would have had an impact of 14 in July August fishery and 2 others in the Oct- Nov.

The 132 is way over ½ of all the impacts by all user groups T and NT. If I remember right there was 212 total impacts on that stock state wide.

Make your own conclusion if there is incompetence of the people negotiating at NOF.
