It would be great to know, of course...but knowing the fact that 90% of them smolts don't make it out of Puget Sound and making a leap to the idea that the problem is right there, might not be such a good idea.

If we found out that it was due to human activity (which I wouldn't be surprised by at all), I have little faith that we'd do anything to fix it...we already know a ton of things that are caused by human activity, and we haven't tried to fix them one bit.

Fish on...
