Some good points everyone, swayed me Keeping it where it is sounds like a good option.

With all the other irons I've got in the fire right now, I hadn't thought this through much and the con's seem to outweigh the pro's.

I do however still believe that when there are plenty of brats back at the hatchery, there's no reason they shouldn't be harvested.

Many rivers, especially the Cowlitz it seems, gets an upward bump in limits when the returns to the hatcheries are high. Should we increase the limit to three in these situations??

Good dicussion everyone!
