Clients that retain native fish become part of the guides limit of natives? That explains alot.People have this image that native fish are so much superior, yet are easily duped by fisherman. Any fish that is not clipped has the potential of being a hatchery fish,there are fish planted each season that are raised in hatcheries that Do Not get clipped.Let us stop wasting our tax dollars, and resouces and ask the Quillute (sp) tribe and the fisheries of BC what and how they do it and enlist those plans into our planting protocols. Work smarter not harder, course this would leave all of those great scientists and resource managers with little to do but count the masses of fish that return..............
