"In 1975, I ate top quality, relatively cheap Salmon in Seattle & Juneau. Now they are frantic to preserve some semblance of Salmon breeding areas and migrations" Bill D

Bill, I think you'd find that you would still find top quality, relatively cheap salmon in Juneau. We haven't done to our salmon what they have done 'down south'. Personally I place primary blame on the multitudinous dams down there. What were they thinking?

I think it may be closer to the truth, LH, if you said that overpopulation is THE basic problem. A great many issues simply cannot be resolved if the population keeps multiplying.
