I'm sorry the only time I respond to these thrreads are when my wife is at work and I've had to much to drink!!! My creditbilty has gone down the drain, Oh welll. At least you know what state of mind I'm in presently

Where does most of the Native population spawn?
From what I have heard its below the I-5 corridor

How much fishing pressure is below
From what I've heard its pretty hard to reach with out a sled.

How many people fish below I-5
From what I've heard very few. There are a couple drifts below but most take out at cow creek.

Sorry for mentioning cow creek, but I think this is rediculous!!!!

What is the escapement below I-5?
I've heard its (unknown) but majority of fish spawn below.
I've also heard that it is above 20,000. Thats a F load of fish!!!!!, Above cow I have no clue.
I've also been told that that is an estimate!! Check out the boat launches to see how much access there is down below. Right off the I-5 corridor is a crock!! add on 2 hours.....
My bro's live 30 min from the Ump and tell me the lower section is "Forks 30 years ago" I have Absolutly no data to back this but. If they can pick up 30+ fish in a day when the Nates are running that only tells me one thing. There is a F load of fish in that river.

I'm leaving in one week to the Ump to Springer fish for 2 weeks this has nothing to do with this thread but fish on!!!! 15# cookie cutters are not common down there. 25+++++ is. So basically what I'm trying to say is this fishery rocks.

I caught a 24 # steely on the Snoq and I'm still high about it. Nothing to with this post also.






Maybe when I have a couple hours of my time to give I''ll reaseach how many fish spawn below i-5. I'm confident it will above 20,000.

Quit B@#$#@ and thank the lord your not up hear, but with a bunch of yokels fishing your river.
