Looking at the seasons and returns it looks like a couple systems that are screwing up the seasons. Hook canal, stilly, etc.

Chinook and coho… coho this year has pretty limited wild retention due to just a couple systems.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

I can and do blame them.  Because you haven't seen first hand the impacts of someone telling you exact depth,  place to go, tide to fish, exactly what to use, leader length etc.  You do realize that prior to the constant broadcast we could fish 11 months a year in Washington.  You could fish area 9 with minimal crowds at such places as possession and mid-channel and not have to check the emergency rules to go next weekend.  So yes,  I do blame these guys

Unfortunately, there are more things on the list of challenges for Pacific salmon than most of us have time to recite.

Good luck tomorrow to anyone going!

Good point. Should toss in Addicted crew, Spilt Milt, FatherSon, Nice Meal, GoogleyEye, FHNW, SalmonU, and hell, even my dad cuz he told me what to do. Maybe it is the banks for givin out so many boat loans. Covid? Years back we had a newspaper that came out with some big name contributors. Had details and maps! FnH News. I miss that. We just have alot of people who enjoy fishing ever constrained areas. Doubt all these media folks are flooding the waters, rather helping many to maximize their time

Internet and increased PNW population are probably more so to blame.
