Ramon,

Thank you for offering such a clear and candid reply.

I'll have to agree that as a study, a two-year time span is not particularly biologically meaningful, particularly when the successfulness in numbers of eggs put in the gravel is often overshadowed by other factors affecting the productivity in returning adults per egg laid for a particular generation.

As to you position on the moratorium. I think you have done well to end any further unfounded speculation by anyone willing to accept reality. I know your hearts are pure in their purpose of advocating for the fish.

Of course a meathead like myself will always believe that the success in working to restore the numbers of wild fish is measured in opportunity for harvest.

Thanks again - Plunk
