4/5/2015 2:56:00 PMHate to sound like Al Gore but I think climate change has a lot to do with it. Been a long time since we have had a long cold winter. So rivers are dumping freshwater in 8-2, and to some extent south part of 9, all winter, Skagit from the north Snohomish and Duwamish from the south. Water is really diluted, salinity content way off from a healthy eco system. Bait fish leave or die etc etc etc. Just my opinion. Further out like Port Townsend Mid Channel bank, Port Angeles etc salinity content healthy, eco system healthy and bada bing lots of fish.
