“Meanwhile, fishery managers estimate 905,800 coho will return to the Columbia River this year, up 619,600 fish from the 2018 forecast. A significant portion of the Columbia River run of coho contributes to the ocean fishery.”

Why? Why can’t a significant portion of the Columbia River run of coho contribute to the Columbia River (and it’s trubitaries)? Why do the guys with the big boats ALWAYS get to wack a huge chunk of fish first?

Just asking?
