I still think the way to ensure that NO hatchery fish get onto the spawning beds would be to erect a barrier dam like is on the Cowlitz on any river that has a native run. This with a fish sorting facility would all but insure no passage of non wild fish. I think we all pretty much agree the numbers of "wild" fish on most rivers are probably miss/non clipped hatchery origin fish.
I was told once that the tribes were against clipping all hatchery fish. Does anyone know if this is the case?
