There's been discussions about instant reporting on our phones. Recs seem to be open to anything that's easier and more accurate. I'm sure some would dispute this but I think most of the recs follow the rules. Unfortunately, the actions of a few allows some to call our honesty into question.
The recs supply creel checkers at all the launches. We supply sampling boats that fish along side us. In season catches are monitored, questionable formulas are applied, and seasons are adjusted based on the information.

The tribes might be just as honest but who knows. There is no system to verify the information they supply.

A program could be developed to independently monitor the tribes as well but it will never happen. Unfortunately, the state has no authority and the feds don't care. The tribe can tell us we have to be monitored but we can't say the same.

Imagine if this was the other way around, all hell would break loose! There would be claims of discrimination and everyone would be falling all over themselves trying to make it fair. What's appalling is that nobody cares in this case.
