Here's a thought....

As many of you know Grays Harbor's management plan has what is called 4/3.......4 days in a week, nets are allow to fish the lower river, 3 days NO nets.....

This plan, while only 1 year old, was to allow salmon to get past the "nets of death" and help in the conservation of these fish AND to allow a sport fishery in the upper basin.

Has the plan caused a few problems, yes but the positive out weights the negative. NT gill netters hate it, limits the days for them....QIN can net the 4 days in the week, this shuts the door for the NT netters.

Wouldn't it be nice if the tribes, on the coast, would limit the netting of the Humptulips, the Quinault, the Hoh, the Queets, and rivers in the Forks area......to 4/3 sure might help in conservation and increase Native stocks.

Just my opinion....
