Todd:

I think you are correct.

I just remember 2015......forecast was for "big return"....sport catch was 3 Coho in river, fish was good, early....not big fish but numbers were there for persons in right place.

Bay fishery, tribe, got fish....then NT started their fishery, not many fish.....WDFW shut EVERYTHING down, in October, Humptulips, Wynoochee, Chehalis, etc. There were legal fish to catch, chum and summer run on rivers that had fish.

WDFW did open the rivers in December.

Many people don't fish the Chehalis until the QIN and NT netters are done.....They lost out on any fishery.
