Letter to the Editor: One less bull in the Tieton Dr. herd...

[bullrider97]

Good luck.

They won't print it, they don't touch the tribal issues in our state. Thanks for trying though.

2) Most of the survivors are killed by commercial fishermen, often with gillnets in the very river to which the fish have returned in a futile attempt to spawn...Commercial fishermen, tribal or otherwise, try to blame everything except overharvest on the problem...

Wrong once again, bigdogg. This is copied directly from his letter. So he blames all commercial fisherman. You should try getting your facts right.

And the Yakima Herald has printed tribal issues before, so there is hope. I don't expect anything to happen, but it can't help to get the word out a little more.

[Skyvalhunter]

I just passed it onto the TNT, they may not print it, but you never know!

If anyone could ever get something like this Tieton deal on video you will want to make MANY copies and send it to all the TV News groups.  If you could get something like this on the TV News it would stand a MUCH better chance of lighting a fire under peoples butts.

I would like to see our Government step up and offer ALL native americans this deal.  You can hunt freely any public land you want but if you select this free pass to hunt anything, anytime, you will no longer get ANY money from the US Government.  Neither Local or federal money.  Nothing!  Or you can continue to get you "check" and hunt non rez land but you have to hunt by the EXACT same laws as every other non native person and if you are caught selling ANY part of ANY animal you lose everything.

good job fishhunt hopefully they will print it. Ill be watchin for it.

I would have loved to include the Game Warden's name, the truck description and license number...

I don't see any reason why a paper would not print this type of a letter to the editor.  Had you included specific information as noted above they would edit that out.  Letters to the editor are intended to be fairly general in nature and get people to think about issues, not to investigate specific persons.

I hope your letter gets printed in as many papers as possible.  This issue should be brought up for public scrutiny and debate.

Apparantly the tribe as represented by some of its members could care less about the future.  If we all thought that way, we'd just open up the season to year around to all with no bag limits.   We'll see what wildlife we have then.   That essentially is how the tribe is managing it now.  Its OK, becasue they are special and its within their rights to do so.  Its actually within our rights to do so as well but we choose to manage wildlife.

Nice one Bone, if we don't manage things that we care for we end up with  . . . . . zip zilch nada zero and that will affect everyone.  Thanks for politely stating the obvious.

[JimmyHoffa]

If you really want to stir the pot... send it to the Seattle times.

Hell, don't do that, the liberal tree huggers will have hunting shut down in the whole state of WA for everyone! 

Probably the more likely outcome. 

[huntnnw]

+1fishhunt, I also agree with getting these so called hunts on video would help light a fire

more damage to fish runs by non tribal??? enlighten us... indians are some of the most wastefull people I have ever seen!!! My best friend works on the peninsula with the state..piles of salmon they waste!! but yet they get to net rivers that we as citizens of WA foot the bill for hatchery released salmon and steelhead?? not right
