The only hatchery CR stocks that are not ad clipped are Snake River fall chinook.
The only exception, which is federally mandated, is for fish designated for reintroduction, the only other exception is for research purposes.


Quit reading so much and actually get out and see for yourself... Go to some of the hatcheries in the area and observe...

Tell me again why we can harvest 1 adult WILD king in the Cowlitz right now? There certainly isn't a surplus of NATIVE FALL KINGS in that river..... There never has been since I've been fishing it.......................
