It's ironic how this system works, if the sporties get more than their quota, then the natives must get in the fishery and equal the share. But if the tribes get more than they should in a test fishery the system must be shut down! RE. last year in Elliot Bay.

I have worked in the sporty industry for over ten years, I used to think ohh well "thats the way it goes" . But from now on, forget it!! The Boldt descision was a Joke(Hear me Lafontaine! That judgement was the biggest joke in history! I wish I knew then what I do know, I would have told you to " go to hell" you whining *******). Jeez, I have heard enough about the poor indians, throw the dice, guide a sporty, or plant a tree. In my estimation the average tribal member would make a lot more $$ guiding sporties in a non-netted coastal fishery than they make selling wild steelhead for a $1 a pound in the commercial industry.
