First we must address why fresh water trout are becoming ill from Sockeye bringing the disease from farming pens - and into fresh water streams and lakes. Sockeye may survive the virus, but if they have to migrate hells gate on a bad year, they lose strength and usually big die-offs from having the aids virus attacking them. Lots of stress on these fish already to migrate heavy river flows, why introduce disease to make it more difficult.
