I have always thought that the Bolt and Rafeedie decisions were poorly reasoned and rendered, now population pressure, harvest pressure, and poor management have the harvesters fighting over what little is left of the resource. I can see a situation developing, where the Tribes overplay their hand and we have a new and different version of fish wars.

In the future I would hope that the courts could do better than a simple, biblical, Solomon type solution as that has been tried and it does not seem to be working very well. It will take a different approach to arrive at a solution that will allow for harvest and for the Salmon to survive and prosper.

We live in interesting times.
