PDO Anyone?

Sooo.... I really don't want to jinx it, but...

Has anyone else seen how the PDO has been lately?!

It's looking amazing. I hope it stays strong! Could result in some quality salmon returns over the next several years, besides a potential hiccup from the 2021 cohort. Last June's insane heat wave crushed a lot of salmon fry, especially Oregon Coast coho.

Yeah, it doesn't surprise me that would have happened.

Am thinking this will be a good year for salmon, but might be crap for albacore . Some of the guides I've been talking too aren't all that thrilled about the possibility of having to run farther offshore than last year due to fuel costs alone.

Their time will come.
