Why would you hold a protest when a state leader comes with the goal of helping you with your problem?
Because in the last 7 years under that state leader, the quota on the fish paying your bills has gone to nothing. Zero keepers and closed for a month of your 3 month summer season. 40k mythical estimated pound quota on a lake that historically produced 200k-600k lbs actual take. How many attempts has Dayton made to help? Quite a few, and yet here we are.
Lest you forgot, it was the Tribes and the “US Government” who defended the treaty and won a favorable decision in the State Supreme Court.
Been going on for more than the past seven years.
Three governors have held office since that day in 99, a Republican, a Democrat and an Independent,not a single one of them has challenged the decision.
Another court challenge by the State would be costly and Futile.
There was a member here who had the will to put his Nuggies on the line to try and challenge the decision, but he was ridiculed out of here by the know it alls.
Now the same know it alls are pointing fingers and grasping straws trying to blame one person for this disaster.
