It's 1600 chinooks. IDFG Staff has repeated this mantra to me numerous times. They always say "it's a moving target" but they keep coming back to the 1600 figure. This past Monday's harvest total was 278. We did a long discussion of how that number fits into the shaping of this season. You can scroll down through this link and find it:

We talked to one of the Boise IDFG fish biologists and he was saying "GO CATCH FISH!" It's a LONG way from a current harvest of 278 to the harvest target of 1600 and (at this time) you have IDFG guys rooting for your FISH ON success!!!!!
GOOD LUCK and post photos when you get back
