It is a rare Snider return that falls in to typical hatchery brat status. We found one Monday 37x18 buck, I would bet you could not see a difference with a wild fish, other than ventral clip. The thing that gets me is that the opinions of the wdfw have no data or fact that is conclusive. They are using data from biologists that would rather not see the program, or are being financially persuaded by their employers to not see it. Sorting and monitoring for a left ventral clip is not a hard task. Is it possible that a tribal biologist for the Quileutes is not aware of our marking program? Maybe, if he or she is a scientist worth the ink they have ingested, they know what swims up the rivers that they focus on.
