Annette Hoffman sent out a Willapa Chinook update. Several spread sheets attached so if anyone wants the info yell. The rack escapement is a bit messed up due to the rain and they made some improvements to trap the wily creature so that is a moving target. The best gauge I could find is the total impacts for the Willapa Basin which includes a Rec estimate by creel count. I am told but have not dug in to it yet that but the numbers in the spread sheet show 873 in U which means the nets landed right on the move with the rain but not so in the rest of the bay.

That is the good news so now the bad. These numbers put to sound like two locomotives doing a head on......


Predicted: HOR NOR
569 6216

Actual 179 2206
