I'm no expert by any means, just know what Antons told me. It's not even an issue of the chinooks being fished out. One thing is that the lakers spawn in the lake while the chinook use the tribs - and with the dam and water levels changing it makes for poor reproduction. Which is what the cutts will face I believe. The lakers just addapted real well to that lake. I'm showing my bias but I don't understand why you WDFW wants to ruin a trophy fishery. This state has more than enough average trout lakes.
