Salmo g. -
With peak wild winter steelhead spawning in the Skagit basin happening around mid-May many years there will still be substantial numbers of winter kelts in the system during June.

If my memory serves correctly at the last PFMC meetng in 2008 the Skagit tribes proposed and later I believed mounted in-river gill net fisheries targeting sockeye beginning during the month of May. Such fisheries would clear catch winter steelhead; both un-spawned adults and kelts.
