Hey Charlie thanks for this data.

Do you have any experience in how accurate is this data in predicting how many salmom actually show up?

How does this data compare with the predictions/estimates/wild butt guesses that we get from the DFO?

Long live wild salmon!!!

Low returns for coho last year? That strikes me as odd considering how abundant they seemed last year.
Mind you these are American stats and not Canadian, although I dont see how they could be that much different.
