If true, that “the Elliott Bay bent pen program releases a million coho but on 50k are clipped. “. Then, the remaining 950, 000 coho released surely were wild stock, vs hatchery supplements, right ?

That’s how they , and the best fisheries /hatchery management practices available tell us the wild fish were being protected from extinction ?

No wonder the non commercial’s fishing seasons are cut short protecting and saving all the wild coho released...
