I think that you are on the right track here. We need to focus on all 4 H's, not just the harvest element. Unfortunately, with the limited $$ for WDFW, I don't think that they will be adopting models that would need to be varied for each watershed(which of course is the logical thing to do).

PS For the first time in my life, I am one of the elite!! Just because I fish with a fly! How cool! Are there any benefits that go along with this label?
