I think all the PS chum salmon stocks outside of Hood Canal are fairing poorly in recent years. Over fishing probably occurred on some of the stocks during some years, but overall that doesn't appear to be the proximate cause of low returns. Nisqually chum are the latest timed run in PS. They have historically evaded the commercial chum net fisheries in Areas 9 and 10 in the northern PS. I cannot pin point any single cause, so I suspect it may be several factors in combination.
