Keith,

Funny you mention harvest as a solution. How else do you think we remove them? It'll likely be harvest, segregating hatchery fish, making hatchery fish that spawn well and don't reduce wild fitness, or cut production.

I'm on board with boaters weirs as well. They too are more likely to see a higher return benefit for every recovery dollar invested. The idea to put them in a beneficial location makes good sense. It also makes good sense to put any near zero mortality harvest method above higher mortality fisheries.
