THX Bob. You know your right though because as in all things with us as a people if you allow the government to sell someone else down the road ( in this case a it is as simple as a few hundred citizens right to fish ) one should always remember this. Next time they will come for you and yours just as surely as the sun will rise in the East.

Little edit as this was forwarded:

Attached is a word file of the doc that is somewhat blurry. Had to convert the pdf due to the file size. Here's the link to the PDF and its posted on the DFW website. Go to "North of Falcon" on side is a table of "2016 Fisheries Plans and Model runs" and you'll see "2016-17 Co-Managers List of Agreed Seasons". That takes you to the doc at the link below. Hiding in plain sight.

On page 37 it starts with Skokomish tribal and rec is below that. Down a little and it shows the rec closure on the Skok. Couldn't find a permanent rule for Nt nets.
I relooked and found two notices on the commercial hotline for NT beach seines. One we hadn't seen before is for August 1-3rd. http://wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/commercial/salmon/hotline/2016/2-jul29_2016.pdf
Then, I found the how it went down. The regular rules coming out of the agreed to seasons doesn't have a NT fisheries over by Hoodsport. Then, maybe a slap at the Skoks? Here's an emergency rule that sets up a bunch of days in July and August "due to surplus of Chinook available" for NT beach seines
