Here are some true economics straight from the Skagit indians. Eggs are worth $4.00 lb now from Chum. They were getting $8.00 last year. The Japanese are their best market. They leave the fish on the bank because the local buyers are only paying $.14 PER FISH, not per pound, for the clean ones and $.08 PER FISH for dark ones. It's sad salmon aren't worth more that $.14 a piece!
