Lots of fond memories of the good fishing at the School house/Flag pole during the 1960s and 70s.

I recall well those "wild " three salt fish we caught in the Snoqualmie and other PS rivers starting as early as Thanksgiving weekend. I did however recall that many of those fish had stubbed dorsal fins and they disappeared in the mid-1980s when the hatchery fish were all massed marked (fin clipped). Still caught lots of 3 salt fish in that same time of year but they all had missing adipose fins. While I was never fortunate to catch one of those 20 pounders I did see several caught in December that were hatchery fish.
