This fish was …
This fish was caught on a river that doesn’t even have a steelhead hatchery program. It was up this river to spawn. So when this fish spawns, it must hang until the eggs hatch, so he can clip the fins of his babies!? Your’e an idiot. Every year, fish with all their fins (possibly native), are caught and taken to the acclimation ponds, where their eggs and sperm are used to make ‘hatchery” fish. The N. Umpqua is scheduled to have a program soon, and this is how they will do it. EINSTIEN!

Hatchery fish come …
Hatchery fish come from Hatchery fish. Sure at onetime they came from a native, but as the study shows, the survival rate and spawning rate goes down generation after generation. Got that Dumb ass? Hope you can comprehend this big concepts without blowing to many brain cells

Hey TallFagGuy…. …
Hey TallFagGuy….what planet are you from? Why don’t you dig up that study and post it, I’d like to see it. Are you under the impression that Dr. Frankenstein created a fish and called it “hatchery”? A ‘hatchery” fish came from “broodstock”, which is from wild fish. Harbukle is spot on with his comment. Hatchery fish spawn all up and down the river. The biggest problem for Native fish are fly fisherfags, who target “only” Native fish. Maybe you and twizzler95 can spawn and make a full brain.

Ok down in the …
Ok down in the states things must work a little differently than in BC.
In BC all hatchery fish are taken from broodstock (wild fish). Hatchery fish are not used to make more hatchery fish. These fish fight just as hard as wilds, and truthfully I highly doubt they make a negative impact at all.
All these fish go through the river down to the ocean and live there for 3 years. They all survive the same things. I would even venture to say hatchery fish have it worse since they expect food.

Nice catch. I learned a little about carrying my camera there at the end too.

What about when hatchery fish are planted in creeks?

All of you are …
All of you are arguing about the wrong battle. The real battle is the “bycatch” of commercial fisherman below Bonneville that is up the wild runs. Commercial fisherman using gillnets, which take everything-wild, hatchery, etc. Then these tools have to bring in the nets and throw the “bycatch” back.What do you think the survival rate on that little operation is.Who gives a rats about the tributaries when the overwhelming problem is in the mainstem with nets and walleye infestation.

Good on you for …
Good on you for taking the hatch fish – yeah! However if you actually think that taking the few out that anglers take, you really think your making a dent in the populations of hatch vs wild? come on. the only way to get those hatch fish out, to make a difference would be to trap all those fish, let the nates go up and pull the hatch fish out. one angler, or 5 will not take out enough fish to make a difference.

Most all hatchery …
Most all hatchery fish go into a trap at the hatchery on the river. They are stripped of their eggs and milt and killed. Almost all the others get caught and KILLED. So very few hatchery fish spawn in the wild.

from the research …
from the research ive done i believe that removing that hatchery fish from the system is a benefit. although it is decreasing the actual number of steelhead in the river it is benefitting the overall population by preventing the dilution of the native gene pool.
and another thing just because a hatchery fish has survived three years doesnt make it wild. it still has the genetics of a hatchery fish. it is important to keep these poor genetics out of the gene pool

Hi Hairball, Most …
Hi Hairball, Most Hatchery fish don’t make it to spawn, and when they do their offspring don’t hatch and survive near as much as native fish do. If you want the study done I can dig it up. What is worse is when a native and a hatchery fish spawn together and the hatchery cancels out the native’s efforts. So Hairball, it turns out you are full of Shit!

Hey weetard! …
Hey weetard! Hatchery fish also spawn in the river dumb dumb…and my guess is you would be the guy that hooks into a phantom native and says “Man natives fight so much harder!”

Wow, what an ass… Do you have any idea of what you are talking about?
These guys are professionals and they know what they are doing. Don’t come stumbling into this video and making a big scene out of something YOU obviously don’t understand.
And if you knew ANYTHING, you’d at least know that the hatchery technicians spawn these fish separate from the native fish. Do what he asked and go do some research. Maybe it will enlighten you. But there’s no reason for you to be an about it.

Good question. The …
Good question. The fish can not be sold but the fish is removed because it is a hatchery fish bound for another part of the river and there would be nothing at all natural about this fish breeding with a wild fish. The fish is removed to protect those fish that are native to the North fork and do infact spawn naturaly. IM not sure why Northern California and southern Oregon have not told their public what happens when hatchery fish interbreed with natives. Look North for education on thissubject

so why would you …
so why would you take this for conservation.. so you can sell them instead of letting them breed naturally.. sometimes ppl fish for the beauty of nature.. some fish to restrict it
January 29th, 2010 at 9:42 pm
You guys are full …
You guys are full of sht! Form of conservation…so what happens when you fight a native for so long that exhaustion kills it, or a hook ends up bleeding the fish out…ooops! That hatchery fish went through extreme conditions to make it to your barbecue…and when hatchery steelhead reproduce i suppose you dummies would call that fish two or three years later a native…unbelievable!!!

Very nice steelhead… Awesome casting by Jean. My congrats to him and to Donnie for making this video…

Well it is my …
Well it is my feeling that the hatchery fish are put there for us to kill and are no longer used to supplement the natural runs….we saw what this causes on the Clackamas river through the 80’s so with that in mind it is always best to go ahead and retain them when found any where in the river. and this would be more true in the upper river areas passed any hatchery or dam point where they can be removed. The idea is to not let hatchery fish spawn with wild fish if possible.

Awesome video, …
Awesome video, great management of taking the hatcheries out of the system. Are you guys taking them out throughout the system or once they pass the hatchery?
