steelie matt,could you explain to me how taking 55 pair and spawning them.raising and releasing clipped fish for killing could possibly help the native run.anytime you take that amount of wild fish you are degridating the system.i will agree their is more clipped fish in the last 5 years but imo their is not the wild fish present that was their 10 years ago.also over time getting the 55 pair of wild fish is going to get harder and harder.the satsop was once was of the finest wild fish rivers in the state for both coho and steelhead.scott
