Slashed by a thousand knives> the loss of Thompson Steelhead is really sad to see. IMO urban water pollution in the Salish Sea is also a huge contributor to the loss of these iconic fish. Just like other Salish sea Steelhead stocks in WA, Thompson stocks have to survive the myriad of toxins and chemicals in our estuary's. Everything from hydrocarbons to flame retardants, the toxic mix entering Puget sound is killing steelhead, wild and hatchery.
