The river system that got the worst of AK/BC interception was the Hoko at a rate of 95+ % interception. The river that shocked me the most at that time was the Nooksack River with close to 90% AK/BC interception, with BC contributing most of the impacts if I remember right.




About that same time there was a "rumor" that B.C. Fisheries was performing genetic testing so as to be able to target lower 48 Chinook. But that was just a rumor......
