The river and run he talks about in this video is no more than 5 minutes from my house. It was in 2008 I started to Spey for steelhead. One of the sadest parts of the crash is that so many people in our area have no idea it ocured. For the past 8 years I have been waiting for the fish to return to the Puyallup. Not so that I could fish for them. But just to see and know they could make a comeback. It is such a great body of water once you get pass the levies.

Good video, but they seem to imply the runs crashed due to overfishing. While that likely contributed, the root cause(s) are much more complex.

I agree with you totally that it is way more complexed. Though I thought he was trying to make the point that he thought it would never end
