It's very frustrating that the federal and state conservation benchmarks are NOT the same. The fish are basically f'd whenever the policy folks can't agree to play from the same sheet of music.

It's even worse in Grays Harbor where the QIN, WDFW and PFMC all have DIFFERENT conservation metrics for what constitutes when the run is "officially" in trouble.
