JoJo, fer sher, there should be no hatchery plants anywhere that there is not an effective adult collection facility to get them out of the river if they are not harvested.

DiverX, the issue is actually even simpler than you laid out...yes, there should be a separation between the hatchery and wild fish...and it can be done with tradtional hatchery fish, which are already separated, rather than wasting wild fish to make wild broodstock that are then separated.

Both of those issues, by the way, are fully laid out and supported as such in the Hatchery Scientific Review Group's documents and recommendations.

Fish on...
