does anyone know if our stealhead from washington travel throughout the entire pacific ocean or jus up to alaska and back? i personally see a huge decline in all ocean species of recent due to pollution, like the soviets dumping 800-900 tons of nuclear waste in the sea of japan, im sure that stuff has made its way to our waters by now, and with all the whales beaching themselves, and dead this and dead that showing up on shore, im more sure that there is more to the stealhead/salmon not showing up then a hook mortality issue, btw, ive tried gammie circle hooks for trout, and i couldnt get a good hookset on them..they would swallow it tho..
