There are some endemic diseases in the Elwha watershed. There are three different diseases impacting the fish at the hatchery. One or two are treatable and one isn't. I don't remember the names of the diseases. It happens every year. A good reason for not moving fish between watersheds....

Gee, it's a good thing that we weren't able to fish them...might have put some to good use.
