i think sthlheader1 knows the situation better than most here, something to do with the hatchery stock used in that system.

the last couple years had been fun without all the pressure that the system was starting to see the last few good years(like drift boats parked in holes overnight, and having to be up in the canyon at 3am to get a bank spot), but it truly is a sad state of affairs down there.

same goes for the lewis, what a shell of a river it is compared to 10 years ago...
