Hard to choke down when you read it. Lots of netting which I imagine is typical.

Seems to be a lot of rec cut backs and not much tribal net cutbacks. A week or two of test netting on coho followed by 4 weeks of directed coho netting followed by 4 weeks of directed chum netting seems equal to me to be 10 continuous weeks of coho-chum-steel netting unless the nets some how can discern between coho, chum and steel. Doesn't really seem protect the resource to me. Changing the Puyallup to tribal only fishing this year would seem to be a precursor to becoming a permanent situation and needing a tribal guide in the future. I suspect all of our fisheries will require a tribal guide eventually.
