I thought TU fell apart in this region due to National TU wild fish advocacy, advocacy to the point of abandoning hatchery fish. The wild trout position is a better fit in most regions, but in the PNW we're screwed with a wild fish only position. The PNW is focused on wild fish recovery, but absent hatchery salmon and steelhead, we have next to no fishing opportunity. I'm not sure if that was ever articulated very well to National TU.
