Cowlitz Fisherman

You are a stud. You have taken it one step farther. So far not to many solutions though. Seems more like a love it (as it is, or is going), or leave it ( I won't live in a state with no wild fish ). I am not as against the wild fish as my last thread may have made me sound. I just wanted to see what everyone thought. This should be neat!!!

Elgaupo and Chuck

Sounds pretty cool if it would work. Lets do that with some wild stock. Back it up with some small stream restoration/protection, as well as estuary protection and bird depradation ellimination.

Thumper

Your name sounds a little like Sirbonkalot, at least the meaning is the same. Notice I have not said BONK one time. (Until now anyway)

I could not agree with you more. The fishing has been fantastic on the Lewis and Cowlitz systems, thanks to the hatchery programs. Almost makes you wish for more....But then there is that impact on the wild fish....If there are any....I love hatcheries they make so many fish to **** (You know).
