Spoonman,

In my fishing on the Kalama,in the past, the springers are not always clipped. Last couple years I have spent a lot of time down there. And I would guess 1 in 15 or so was clipped in the past. But, this year I think they finally caught up with the mass marking. And all hatchery fish are clipped. As you can only keep those fish that are clipped this year I would hope they are all clipped. Good luck and I will see you down there!
