Let's talk the Kenai for a second...........

Why are their king runs crashing?

Water quality suck?

Does the river lack stream complexity?

Does the river lack woody debris?

Poor estuary habitat?

Help me understand why the Kenai's kings would be crashing..... Then when you finish explaining the Kenai, explain the Skeena/Babine/Kispiox and why their steelhead returns aren't what they used to be....

Is there a better example of a pristine watershed than the Skeena?
