An excellent presentation, thanks for sharing it! 

One does wonder how the Chinese managed to include all those indicators in their Hoax (for the last 20 years, no less!)...  <insert huge eye-roll here>

Thanks, that was great. Not necessary great news, but good to understand bigger picture and recent trends. Always appreciate your posts.

In the PS, declining bait has been a big observation the last 2 years, at least where I typically fish (N end MA11- S end MA9). Esp this winter, where the half dozen forays I have made haven’t produced a single bite and very few marks. I know it’s a different story more N (MA7) but I have been limited to local sessions.

Thoughts on the bait? Maybe I am just wrong place wrong time but has seemed different than most years previous.

Finally located some real bait this morning, and a few small schools of salmon marks. One larger school 20+ fish. Couldn’t stick with them and no contacts from the limited time around the fish, but glad to finally see something on the finder. Bait and marks disappeared approaching the low. Pics give away the location-

Damn...normally I equate presentations like that to root canal and treat them the same. Mostly because presenters usually talk over the heads of the laymen in the audience. This one, it made a ton of sense .

I wonder what would happen if we applied some of the same techniques and programs used on waterfowl to salmon and steelhead? Modified to work in the face of increasing global temps, of course..........
