Last year the hatchery received something like 150 fish. The year prior they received half that. The year before was even less. Don't get me wrong. There have always been steelies in the Puyallup. Improvements are taking place and there are simply more fish than there have been in quite a while. Anything over a couple hundred (which sounds like a possibility now) is worth checking out.
