I have no opinion regarding WT's ultimate objective, be it saving wild salmon or closing hatcheries.... But.... if they are really concerned about saving wild salmon and steelhead, they need to focus a lot more on the nets (tribal and non-tribal).
I have witnessed so many wild steelhead and salmon taken with these nets in the Columbia River. It is just unimaginable that an endangered species would be allowed to be netted and groups like WT remain silent on that, but not other destructive practices.
