Skewed IDFG Chinook Harvest Numbers

[chrome_junky]

I won't get in to a bunch of details but I had a lengthy discussion with IFG on Tuesday about fish counts. I asked how it was done and if they took into consideration people and fish they didn't get around to checking. I was told the formula for figuring their fish counts. Needless to say I wasn't impressed with how they do it and told them that I thought it was not an accurate way to account for these fish....... one of the biologists replied with "I agree."

Even they know they are screwing it up.
