I doubt that there would have been a commercial NI fishery that targeted Nisqually. More likely the tail end of the Fall chums which would have been Skookum and maybe Perry and McLain.

To my knowledge, WDFW has been, or was, pretty committed to staying off the Winter chum commercially. Even in Boldt, they were allowed to aggregate SS chum with all the Winters going to Nisqually and the NI share coming out of the Falls.

Area 11 wouldn't have the winters until sometime in December and a fishery by NI after 11/30 would be in violation of Initiative 77. Can be done, but...........
