Jeff, I didn't hear about the low jack count over Bonny (don't touch that one 'Yall ). I hope it picks up dramatically. To answer your question, they got the 50% figure from the Vancouver Columbian article above your post. ... But I have heard about plentiful jack returns in many non-damned rivers region wide as well. It is unfortunate about this drought as the ocean finally gets productive again. With more rain to go along with more fish next fall/winter/spring seasons we should be yelling "another one on" often!
