Why kill them if you are not going to eat them? They have been in the rivers as long
as the salmon and steelhead and are getting to the point of becoming endangered as
well. It is not their fault that we have mismanaged steelhead and salmon runs to the
point of extinction. The amount of salmon/steelhead eggs eaten by dollies overall is
very small and is not affecting the runs. Overfishing and poor ocean survival is.

The big rainbows up in the alaska eat salmon/steelhead eggs as well but you dont
see people killing them. They are a natural part of the ecosystem and vital to its
overall health.

Sorry to jump on the pulpit but I have seen people on the Sauk catch a Dolly, kill it,
and throw it back in the river. As far as I am concerned a fish is a fish and they all
should be treated with some respect.
