Yeah the weather here has sure changed over the last 5 or so years. The last 6 days have felt just like late July Early August. With it starting out cloudy and foggy, then burning off about noon with the NW wind picking up and then gets cloudy and foggy again by 4 in the morning.

Between 1880 and 1930, anywhere from 25 to 50 million pounds of salmon was harvested on the Columbia and now we are down to about 2 million, of which a very large % are hatchery fish.

But we have cheap power.
