Incidental take of natural origin Chinook

[StacyR]

If people want to be pissed at someone over how many salmon the Indians get, then be pissed at the people who made the treaties way back in the 1800s. I'm sure most of them thought they would never be enforced, or at least that it would never be a point of contention. Going back on promises to the Indians and appropriating property and rights given under treaty seemed to be the de facto way of doing business back then.

Considering how many obstacles the salmon have to get through to get downriver and back up, we're lucky to have any of them to catch at all. Not to mention dangers in the ocean and all the nets and hooks from Washington and Oregon, they have to get by to get here.
