Most of ID springers are over Bonn now. They are catching ID summers now.
Heres how this works
ID has no legal say in how the columbia salmon are caught. They are ALLOWED to sit in and can suggest. Thats all
SO the lower river compact manages the fishery like this
Catch as many early fish as possible knowing about 70% are going to ID. Watch the run and increase harvest as the run pans out. The reopen the season as ID summers start showing up along with more OR/WA springers
Its a great deal foe them
