I'm afraid that you are still assuming that no manager cares as we still don't know how the fishing tribes are keeping track of this, and I suspect that they would have no interest in coming here to explain it to you.

What we do know is that neither the BIA or NOAA has ever done the monitoring of tribal of non-tribal catch. If you really want the answer rather than just insinuating that the tribal catch estimates are bogus, as you do in your second post, you should probably contact one of the tribes that are fishing. I'm sure they know.
