Bob,

Thanks for the link. I see that the sport catch for 1999 , the most recent year in the report, for the Kasilof early run only was over 8 thou.
The late king run seems to have remained stable during two decades of hatchery sockeye production and harvest. The comm. fishery produces tens of millions of pounds of protein for a hungry world and lots of jobs and employment for the area. There really does not seem to be any reason to be concerned about the king runs.
