Cowlitzfisherman,

Im sorry this turned out to be what it did. I have read alot of good things you have written in the past and think you care alot about the fish.

The thing I dont understand is why you are trying to prove me wrong about the Quileute system. It is apparent that there is a problem right now. It is also apparent that CnK and the current hatchery practices arnt helping the issues that this river has but thats not the point. All I was saying is that something is wrong.

If you can tell me how CnK and current hatchery practices will enhance the Quileute river system's wild steelhead im all ears. I just dont see how either of these things does the system any good. The OPGA Snider creek program seems like it has had some positive impact but none of the proir have.

There are many vairiables that have made things the way they are. Hatcherys and CnK are only parts of the problem but they have made an impact.
