Tribes in Western Washington are catching fewer fish than before the landmark Boldt decision of 1974 because continuing habitat loss is destroying salmon and steelhead runs.

Definition of insanity? Here is a prophetic headline from 2004.

Boldt Decision very much alive 30 years later - The fish bonanza is over; now, preserving habitat is a paramount issue.
