I talked to Brent, one of the enforcement officers. He said that it's legal for them to snag, but they can't use triple hooks. If you see them using triple hooks call 360.877.5213 and report it. He said take videos and photographs. They want to get these guys also.

FH5, this is what I posted in reply to ZOZO's Skok Nets thread:

Dan, Kevin, Doug, and HH - good posts! Video camera filming, along with some protection (including a gun for a just in case scenario) CAN do something. If these improper actions by Indian netters and white snaggers are filmed many times and copies given to news media, appropriate authorities, and tribal councils - and they each know the other entities are getting copies - things to avert this crap will start to happen; in my opinion. At the very least the culprits on both sides will begin to get concerned about strong building aversion to what they are doing, with good chances they will at least back off some; or in some cases a lot. But this will take effort to film and inform by lots of us sportsmen - not just one or two incidences. A bunch of video tape copies sitting on the right desks along with signed wittness complaints will get the attention! I don't think the Skok tribal netters, or other tribes, really want another violent uprising caused by their actions. AND PLEASE STOP WITH FRIGGIN HISTORY LESSONS ABOUT WHAT SOMEBODY ELSE'S ANCESTORS DID A HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS AGO!!!!! I don't care how long their ancestors lived around here. Those natives and white ancestors are dead and long gone - and in reality don't have crap to do with today! The current laws and situation are what counts today!!! ...

'Fly and I motored up the 'grass strung' zipper yesterday, with his weed cutting MinnKota, and saw only 1 chinook while fishing and then looking in all the best gin clear holes afterward. When we came back down an Indian gillnetter was up the small stream in his boat stretching a second net across the river. After we passed by Joe had to pull up the motor and coast across the lower net because there was no way to get by; it was bank to bank. We took several still pics of the nets with Joe's cam. Unfortunatley, Joe lives nearby and knows many of the Nisqually tribe members - and his boat is quite recognizable. I think if he sent in those pics with a signed complaint he could become a target to some degree? I do hope he posts them on fishing websites. If that wasn't ugly enough, get this! At the take out there was a low life inbred 'blue eyed' white creep, that after talking to us and figuring we were 'cool' and not cops, started bragging that he is friends with some of the 'Nastys' and he poaches fish with their gillnets and sells eggs! He proudly told us he got out from a 3 year prison sentence a while back. Definitely not the brightest gem in the rock pile! Shouldn't be long before he's back in. He also said his Indian pal setting out the nets we passed had also done 2 years in prison. We didn't ask why for either of them - we just stood their looking real impresed with them laugh . Geez, at a couple of points I think my eyeballs rolled clear above my eye sockets laugh laugh . These type of low life jerks make a great case for propsective parents to have to pass a parenting class and get a license to have sex! At least to have kids!!!
