Biffchan, based on these numbers for the last 5 years, it's a conservative guess of 30,000 Cohoes expected to return this year.  Some runs currently hold large numbers of Coho.  BP posted a great report.. :D  I'm still hooking into chrome fish which indicates late arrivals.  It's wonderfull to know that these fish are still in the system.   ;)

That is sick what they are doing with the Chum releases, looks like Coho production is tailing off...

Oh thanks for clarifying that!

This proves I can't work and forum surf at the same time :)
