Bob I agree with you on the fact that all the lower ends of the OP have fish that spawn down lower the bulk of the runs are up river fish as counts prove that however. I would like to see a topic come up that talks about spawner conditions to avoid for the average angler. Last year with all the talk of to many spawners and not enough fresh fish was just an example of lack of angler knowledge, as we managed many bright fish daily last year and did not catch any spawners when that is all I heard about, it is just where you fish I agree!!!PEACE
