Tribes are going to do "what tribes do"....Bolt Decision basically said that that the treaty tribes have 1/2 of all fish, crab, clams, and the touchy one, can hunt when they want to hunt.

As someone who lives in Grays Harbor, I know the QIN, fish a gillnet schedule that is more than I feel they should BUT THAT SAID, the QIN backed off the days during !2/14 - 4/15 and Wild/Native steelhead numbers went up.

I don't know what would happen if they decided to take 1/2 the crab, clams, oysters, etc.??????????

Do you??????

Sometimes, I just "bite my tongue"......that's tough for me to do!!!

I do know that the Chehalis River doesn't need 3 groups gill netting the river....QIN, Chehalis Tribe and Non-treaty......what group should go????

Old saying "Let sleeping dogs lie".....I know some would like to "fight the Indian wars, again".....just not going to win!!!!
