RalphH.....i was referring to the Elwhas summer run steelhead, not the Gold or Heber stocks in terms of functionally extinct. The two stocks of summers on the Gold are doing better than they were years ago? Have you been on the Heber lately?
As per hatchery steelhead wiping out the wilds on the Gold, we did encounter a few summer and hatchery strays over the years. To claim hatcheries wiped them out is comical.
Have you encountered lots of hatchery strays on the Gold Ralph?
Ralph, what BC rivers have done better once hatcheries have been shut down?
Wildmanyeahs,above comments completely sum up closures. Without help these systems stay dead. All the wishful thinking in the world ain't going to bring them back.
