Nope, I am not in California. Now. While I will admit that I don't know exactly what happened in WB this year I have been to enough goat rodeos to know how the lower-level folks manage salmon.

During my career I have been involved in the front-line, day to day management decision-making process (and pre-season) for somewhere between 75 and 100 million adult salmon. I think I know how the game was played.
