In general I don't think most people care about table fare, or can recognize quality fish. I've given pink salmon from the puyallup to friends and they were genuinely appreciative and complimented the quality.
I've seen bright coastal kings vary in quality from 1/2" of fat, to nary a bit to be found.

People just want to fish, if the winter hatchery runs disappeared there'd be a pretty big gap in time where nothing was going on.

I'd love to see some more summer runs. I don't know what's going on at the wynoochee but I can't seem to find them.
