* Boldt case area river/stream system (Western Washington only).

1 The majority of the Columbia River System steelhead are summer-runs.

2 Winter steelhead catches are from angler surveys conducted by the Quinault Indian Nation.

3 Total number of rivers where steelhead were harvested during that month.

4 April 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.
