Curt,

As I stated above I was merely kidding. I understand the process by which these numbers are calculated.

Why is it the test fish boats do not CWT wand all fish encountered? I asked this question of Slim Simpson at the Shoreline office and it was not well received. Seems to me if you are already handling all the Chinook and taking fin clips, scales and FKL measurements there is no harm in running the wand for 2 seconds.... that would in the very least eliminate all double index group fish from the unmarked/marked assessment.
