Yeah! It's great that they are going to allow fishing for them in the Penobscot River, but it's only 1 river and only 1000 fish, hardly a recovery. They could have always been there and just been missed. Now if 3 or 5 years from now there's 10,000 fish or even 5,000 then I'd call it recovering.
The other rivers weren't reported on and that's a concern. Though I did hear that there may be Salmon returning to Grand Lake Stream.
