I am just glad that the naturally-spawning fish there don't know that its poor habitat. I have seen 40lb plus "natives" spawning in smaller streams in the basin where there are no hatcheries. And go way up on the one river with poor habitat when its crowded with Kings.

Apparently one of the hatcheries is being turned over to the raising of "Dog" Salmon, when most of the smaller streams there are prime habitat and I've personally seen thousands of them naturally spawning. I also heard that WDFW were going to throw sportsmen a bone with a new run of fish from one of the hatcheries.
