<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black">Please find attached the 2023 updated Klamath River Basin Fall Chinook Salmon Megatable. Total in-river run and hatchery returns in 2023 were just over
68,000. While this exceeded the pre-season projections, it is less than 60% of the long-term average. We have a ways to go toward rebuilding the stock and restoring some meaningful commercial, recreational, and tribal fisheries, that’s for sure!
