Laterun,
your idea has been brought up many times to them. The problem is it makes way to much sense. For instance I suggested that they let the tribes set up there dipnet stations in the ladder area, then that way they could net there fish there, keep only the clipped ones and a biologist could be present to take a scale sample off of the wildones and release them. Then they could also tag fish there and see where the end up and this also could be a tourist trap where you Big Bear, from the local tribe, could sell fresh caught columbia river spring chinook for about 10 bucksa pound to all the tourist who would come by to see the damm and the fish.

Makes way to much sense dosen't it.

Peace
