is "escapement" sort of like a prison break? did they tunnel out.

Interesting pointers if you match up the numbers of the Adams Run - you get this:

Adams River

Tagging on the Adams River began September 22nd; 8,690 tags have been applied and 43,321 carcasses have been recovered.  The incidence of net marks, hook marks, symptoms of gill (gill discolouration or fungus) and general disease (body discolouration or with circular blotches, small with spots, fungus), and wounds during the current reporting period is 79%, 1%, 21%, 5%, 3%. Water temperature is 14.0 o C.

Of 8,690 fish, on average had
net marks, 79%
hook marks, 1%
symptoms of gill 21%
general disease 5%
wounds 3%

Thats a lot of net marks!

hook marks, 1%
