Cultural heritage is important. I'm sure we all have different customs and traditions we find important, regardless of our background. I am in agreement that the tribes have ceremonial fisheries, IF the state and tribal Bios agree a very limited harvest will not harm recovery efforts.

I appreciate the fact that the tribes included in the announcement that there will be no sale of fish or eggs. This is exactly the type of transparent communication that reduces speculation and rumors.

I believe if they included the small number of fish they intend to harvest in the announcement, and it is verifiable through records or direct observation, the sport fishing community should support a culturally important harvest.
