...yeah, that worked really damned good for the nisqually!

the way things are going, it seems like the steelhead are on their way out in many places. there's quite a few untouched rivers and creeks on the coast and i'd bet money that they get nowhere near the fish they once did, despite the fact that they are fished little or not at all, have no development or farms on them, and no hatcheries.

as easy as it is to feel guity for sport harvest, it's just yet another small piece of a bigger puzzle.
