I don't usually get involved with arguments on the hatchery vs wild fish debate, but things are getting out of hand on this board. I was going to start a thread on the science involved, but it looks like Rob already beat me to it. If folks really want to learn about the hatchery vs wild fish issue, it's just a matter of doing a simple google search. A few google searches will yield more information than most people can read in a month. I know a lot of it is pretty dry reading, but how better to become informed and make an intelligent decision for yourself. The only suggestion I'll make is to stick with the professional peer reviewed information. Too much of the other information is driven by emotion or politics and usually isn't very accurate. As a professional biologist I feel there's just too much information out there indicating hatchery fish are causing problems with wildl fish.

Oops the last sentence should've been "As a professional biologist I feel there's just too much information out there indicating hatchery fish are causing problems with wild fish to ignore.
