So when hershel and his buddies were wiping out what was left of the ceder river sockeye it was our fault for not controling the seal and sea lion populations after we wiped out the Orcas. Right?

Please dont tell me that hatcheries produce more fish than what was originally in the rivers before man. That is just plain flat out wrong. Native populatians in there prime were thicker that hair at the mouths for months. my great great granpa told me all about the fish jumping throughout the sound as far as you can see. Ron lagar at the cowlitz told me how the water would turn milky with milt from all the spawning fish! hatcheries can never replace what we once had but they help. A river can support as many fish that can make it up to spawn. If it wasnt for hatcheries those pinnipeds would be eating all native fish! and they dont stick to the regs.
