If we're talking a 50/50 Native/Non-native split, and we're talking a 50/50 split of 100% of the harvestable numbers of fish, then 23% Native harvest, and 8.5% non-Native sport harvest leaves 68.5% for non-Native commercial harvest. That's really what the historical data show for past harvests too, and it shows us that our "white net" friends are just as big a problem for sport anglers as are the tribal commercial netters. Unless the 23.5% and 8.5% represent a fraction of the total numbers expected, rather than a fraction of the harvestable numbers expected, then that's what the numbers say to me. In either case, it's the sporties screwed again, to the benefit of commercial netters. Pay less, take more......ain't it the American way?


Fish on........
