The Albion test fishery does show lots more chum than coho. Go figure.

the net that the test fishery uses at Albion is designed to catch Chum one day and then the next day a multi panel Chinook net is used. With neither net designed to catch coho it would explain why the coho catches are less than the Chum catches in the test fishery

I caught a chum on the Vedder yesterday, and it was in the mid river.
Seems that all Vedder fish is early this year.
