On what scale do we in WA fertalize our rivers? And I keep hearing phrases like "a major factor" used in describing the percentage of decline caused by habitat. Can anyone put an @ number on what percentage is habitat like spawning grounds and low water levels, vs water temps at sea and factors outside of local river areas? These rivers, as bad as they are, can be excellent case studies for future recovery efforts. I hope they choose more than one method for recovery so we can see what method has the greatest affect.

Sure does open my eyes.....
