I remember when they first put fish above Mud Mountain. Best available science said there was X area for spawning so that amount of fish was passed up Well and good. They spawned. Just not where they were expected. While I was around folks weren't all too sure where they went.

They were passing quite a few above Mud Mountain. It seems recovery should be tied to their success and not the two hatcheries.

Further, the White was a Green Over/Duwamish trib in the 19th Century. It kept switching watersheds. Anyway, they should work at putting springers into the Green River Canyon; use Icy Creek as a rearing pond.
