Anybody heard any numbers for the Sacramento returns? Last I heard they were counting up til December 1st, and it didn't look like they would reach the 122,000 fish floor. I understand this would be the third year in a row, automatically triggering the 'overfishing' clause of the MSA.



Any news out there?

I got some some #'s e-mailed to me by a connection several weeks ago that showed some horrendous returns on a few of the key tributaries. From what I saw I can guarantee there probably won't be a SOF season. One of the key hatcheries did not even get enough fish to meet their egg requirement. Not good. On another note are the the Henrietta W that ties up in Newport? I used to spend most of the season down there when it was open and saw that boat many times.
