Sorry I didn't try to steal FishBulb's work, that's my fault. Yes the information was taken from Ifish.

Point to the story is it's pretty hard evidence that Gary's story is one that certainly stretches the truth...

What is my problem with the situation you might ask??? Why in hell would you want to start a false run of Coho from hatchery fish?? It's obvious his intent was to create a wild run of Coho and quite possibly have it be the main reason the nets would have to halt in the Columbia... I just don't understand his reasoning... It sure as heck wasn't to increase harvestable fish!!!!! There's already enough mis-clipped coho in the Lewis.

There are far more important fish that a hatchery fish that hatches from a hatch box in the Lewis river, a great start would be to preach about the Truely native Fall King run (Lower River Brights) in the Lewis and quite possibly use their fall in #'s as something to preach about.......
