I think it is critical that if you have an opinion about what is being proposed for Flathead Lake “Fish Management”, you go to this meeting and voice it. I would also bring along a prepared statement and personally hand it to the Chairperson, and also have a copy to give to the press.

This is an excellent opportunity for those responsible to the state as well as the tribe to hear you.

Its next Wednesday and as the agenda states, they will be discussing Tribal Projects- Past “Accomplishments” and Future “Projects”…

I’d like to see you there.
