This doesn't surprise me. I don't like it but it doesn't surprise me. Nooch has had 2 week sport extensions into mid-April the last 2 years because of above average returns. WDFW also claims(as of last year anyway) the Chehalis system, as a whole, has been above escapement in recent years. I was wondering when the tribes would catch on.

As to the Hump, with it's depressed wild stocks and early sport closures, I'm completely baffled how this is justified.

Guess that explains the increased netting I've been seeing in Aberdeen on Fridays now. beathead
