Well, first off ... they don't plant half a million, so check your numbers if you want to throw those around. The Hoh has fared way better for Jan numbers than the Bogey and Calawah and it gets the same plants with zero collection facilities ... so if you're trying to link the demise of the early fish to the Chambers fish themselves, then you would expect it to be worse in a river that has no collection facilties for them ... there are as many strays in Duc and returning fish in the Hoh as don't end up in the trap in the Bogey or Calawah, so that one holds as much water as a self-bailing raft.

Now perhaps if you wish to factor in what peeps do the runs because of the Chambers fish presence, then yes ... it's a big factor, but immeasurable. But if we can't officially measure it, then it doesn't count according to what you have written so many times.
