Peter Jellar signs a contact list form for "Citizens Against Co-Management and Netting of Flathead Lake" while others at the demonstration do the same.

Gail Shattuck puts a net over her husband, Tim, a guide for Flathead Lake Charters who dressed in a fish costume during a protest outside the Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks office in Kalispell on Tuesday afternoon. The group opposes proposals to target lake trout in Flathead Lake with extensive netting. The Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes are preparing an environmental review that will outline those plans.
