*Boldt case area river/stream system (Western Washington only).
1The majority of the Columbia River System steelhead are summer-runs.
2Winter steelhead catches are from angler surveys conducted by the Quinault Indian Nation.
3Total number of rivers where steelhead were harvested during that month.
4April 1999 harvests may be incomplete because a new license system went into effect on April 1 and anglers were issued new 1999-2000 CRC. Although anglers were required to record their April harvests on their old 1998-1999 CRC, they may actually have recorded them on the 1999-2000 card. Thus, some portions of the April harvests may not be documented until the 1999-2000 CRC are analyzed.
