In years past inland folks have had a rule. You restrict any marine or terminal commercial and the model says xx more fish will be back. At the end you always find many many more make it back. If restricted in the ocean reaching AK the numbers jump again. Simply put the governing agencies have about zero idea of the true impacts of fisheries. I think MR your correct and maybe being kind. If all fishery impacts on Chinook were stopped I think you would damage your laundry when the final escapement count came in. Then this Chinook are primarily 4 & 5 year fish so each year you did not impact the the number would increase as a 5 year fish has endured 4 years of harvest. The increased number and reduction in size seen in recent years would change little in generation one but by the time you got to gen 5 ( 25 yrs ) the size of Chinook would be dramatically increasing. Having worked with Chinook for 20 years you have no idea just how correct you are MR.
