Basically I have heard many people say that hatchery steelhead do not co-mingle with native fish. Maybe not many here, as this is a fairly educated forum. The point of this question and video is how often does this happen? We found this fish and from what we could tell it had been in the system for quite a while, it had spawned out I presume and may have been on its way to being a kelt.

Whats everyones idea on this fish? Was it spawning and eating eggs of upstream fish?

By the way, the fish didn't cook up nice from what I heard.
