I will also add that the hatcheries are a bandaid to cover the reel problem.They decieve the general public and allow fishing where there should be none.Even if the hatchery fish are not competing with our wild stocks they open the door for the sporty to go in and kill smolt accidently while trying to catch these hatchery fish.

I have said on this bourd for two years now, that I would rather put my steelhead gear away then see the wild fish go by the way side.That is not an easy decision.Alot of the people that are trying to discredit any body or orginization that stands against the hatcheries is afraid of losing there oportunity of harvest.

To fish or not to fish.Is that the reel question?
