This theme, with minor modifications, might have been the theme of an American Fisheries Society meeting in 1892, 100 years ago. Yet we have a challenge like no other generation facing declining stocks. Over 100 year of professional effort did not prevent the decline of Pacific salmon stocks. [...]I suggest we have three responsibilities as fisheries scientists: (1) to seek biological truth with rigorous review, (2) to be intolerant of partial presentation or misleading presentation of data, (3) communicate clearly the risks society takes when the public chooses to eliminate or compromise biological systems. This workshop offers you two of the tools you need. It offers an opportunity to refine your understanding of several fisheries biology issues, and provides a forum to identify partial or misleading information. [...]
