Almost got me with the 1%, I had to look at the run forecast model to be sure. The numbers have changed recently as % 3 yr old went up at the expense of the 5 yr old. So just grabbing two years at random this. 2012 the breakout was 3 yr old 17.5% / 4 yr old 34% / 5 yr old 47.2%. 2017 the breakout was 3 yr old 35% / 4 yr old 49.6 / 5 yr old 20.7 %. The 10 yr average is 3 yr 24.5% / 4 yr 53 % / 5 yr 20.9 %. The 6 yr age group is still present but at a fraction of % and 7 yr gone.

The other thing is that the Southern hatcheries get about 30% less returning adults per million zero age smolt release or 70 cents on the dollar invested. In other words the 3.5 million Forks release will produce nearly as much as a 5 million at Naselle.
