Technically Dave is right. There are a few returning 5 year olds from the 3.5 M release from forks creek 5 years ago, but 5 year olds comprise less than 1% of the run on WB streams, so not significant contributor.

Next year will be like this year minus the 30# fish (although its been a decade since I've seen one of those on WB).

They'll rarely make egg take on the naselle with the new goal, Forks creek is nearly making the goal with 10x less adults.

Note that the Forks creek hatchery appears to be way more efficient than Naselle.

Not a very good plan from a hatchery operations standpoint either.
