True words !

“ thanks for pointing out the very few steelhead that get caught in the Chehalis ******* system in November and December the past 25-30 years. Now if you went back to the late 60's, 70's, and 80's, that was a different story, hatchery steelhead were put in to return in November - January, WDFW stopped those hatchery releases and tribal netting started. End of a good sport fishery!!!!! “

********* As it was with -

The Snohomish River
The Skykomish River
The Snoqualamie River
The Lake Washington System ( mainly the Cedar)
The Green River
The Puyallup System
The Nisqually System

And more.
Grrrrrr
