Jacob, I must disagree. Here are the facts (as reported by WDFW in punchcard counts) for the Nisqually.

1980 1414 killed
1981 1349
1982 1374
1983 1263
1984 1916
1985 1960
1986 I don't have the data
1987 2346
1988 1273

These are not insignificant numbers. Keep in mind these were all wild steelhead. I can't remember when the Nisko was closed, and I don't have easily accessed data for other years, but I think you get the idea.
