Interesting that you would mention that. I made the very same comment/statement at the meeting.
If we are truly co-managing, why are the tribal forecasts not shared with us at the projections meetings.

I asked, since we are not "allowed" into the negotiations, that WDFW should at a minimum use part of the allotted time giving us a detailed explanation of what the tribes are saying is forecasted and what they propose to fish.

After all. No matter what the slide show says by WDFW. When the real deals are done in the NOF WDFW/Tribal meetings, all bets are off if the two don't hold hands and sing Kumbaya.
The problem is, the Tribes can walk and still fish..we can't!
