Wow, let's get out there and fish for more over a longer period of time. Kings be damned, we can't afford to let all those future McDonald's sandwiches go uneaten (it would hurt our economy). In other news, how excited is your village about getting a McDonalds- 'since we took your kings, our pollock Fillet-o-Fish sandwich is only $15 in Nome'. And it's MSC certified- who could argue with that...it's even PETA certified

What a sham of a fishery that KO'ed Yukon kings...
