The limiting factor is the one "thing" that is most responsible for the amount of fish we have now.

Especially in Puget Sound, habitat is the limiting factor. The habitat, as it exists now, can only support so many fish...that is about the amount of fish we have in Puget Sound right now.


Well If you were "quoting" Todd it was a Mis-quote. He advocates dealing with fisheries issues on a basin by basin basis.

I can't imagine anyone that would argue with the idea that harvest is the main problem facing the Chehalis system, much the same as it is our number one problem here on the OP. To apply his thoughts on Puget Sound issues to the Chehalis is simply adding your personal dislike of him to the debate, which once again clearly illustrates the biggest challenge facing sportsfishers in Washington. We can't get along with each other long enough to get anything meaningful accomplished.
