My wife and I went on our yearly Thanksgiving walk along the Weaver Creek spawning channel yesterday and was quite shocked on what we didn't see. For all the years we have been going to the channel on this weekend it has always been packed with sockeye, chum, and pinks every other year. What was sad was we saw a grand total of 9 sockeye and 1 chum in the channel. There were quite a few chum in the sorting channel waiting to get in but the lack of sockeye was disappointing. Unless the sockeye have come and gone already ( which I don't think has happened, especially when the tally board at the entrance to the facility showed only 109 sockeye have been counted to date ) it looks like this run has gone by the way of the dinosaurs.
