Thanks. I have actually got some flak from it in various fishing groups, and I expected that. As a native friend said, greed exists no matter the color of someone's skin, and I know natives get a bad rap in some places because the stories of wasted fish and abandoned nets always get the most attention. Simply hoped people would watch the video and see that there are reserves doing it right. Just tried to put a good story out there.

i thought it was pretty cool. we have walleye here but not in numbers. They are delicious. I too have heard stories of people wasting that resource and using their ancestry to justify it. I am sure some of them are true at least. Those guys were just harvesting. Again, I liked it.

IMHO, if you practice "traditional" rights, then you ought to live 100% traditionally... 100% of the time. Especially since there are at least 400 million in North America these days vs maybe 3 million when these methods were the norm.
That being said, gorgeous photography in that vid.
