Yeah, it's all tenuous. Any fishery can go at pretty much any time. But chum runs are still relatively strong and are relatively wide spread even if it does seem we're just bouncing from species to species. I worry way more about loss of habitat than commercial salmon fishing but to each his own.

As I'm curious, I'd appreciate your citing some sources on that, beyond that of a PR person. LarryB's point would seem to be that if we've eaten all the other, formerly sustainable, runs and now start digging into the keta run with new vigor, how long can it remain sustainable?

The keta are a sustainable run.

Yep - let's catch the last of the wild salmon. Looks like it's time to enjoy some before it disappears forever.
