It seems the Bogi/Calawah, Queets/Salmon and Hump all boasted very early returns this year. I know of hatchery brats being caught the first week in November on all of these streams. Whether or not we're seeing our typical number of returning brats year early vs. an extrordinarily large number of returning fish, only time will tell. But, I agree with cuthroattosteelies, things seem to have peaked earlyer than normal on the above mentioned rivers.

Anybody know about the typical January runs (nooch, etc.), are they early too?
