Grandpa,

.The Quinalt is not healthy. Actually the worst off of all the OP systems as far as health of the native stocks goes..

Fastwater,

.Sorry to say that unfortunately most of the spawning does go on in the lower rivers, Below 101,Quileute System more than others, now since the early component of the runs numbers have been in decline. so if you fish the lower rivers below 101 in the spring meaning March April you are almost exclusively fishing stageing fish that may not have spawned yet but are gettin ready too. there are exceptions but that is the norm.
