Of course they're good. Most of the definitive studies have been done by our State to the south Oregon. They have no problems with their hatcheries, great runs on most all their rivers. We on the other hand had a jack ass at the helm of WDFW who wanted to get out of the hatchery business. He paid his friends at the Wild Fish Conservancy just shy of ten million in the form of a grant to prove that hatcheries were bad. Why did we have to invent the wheel and ignore all those studies by the State of Oregon and it Universities? They didn't say what our former leader wanted to hear.

Bottom line, who paid the Wild Fish Conservancy 10 million dollars? We did, it was tax dollars. What do we do about it? Call and write your elected officials until they understand your position as a constituent. Left their own, bureaucrats will have their way with your backside every time. We must tell them how to act and what to do with out fail. They are worse than children left to their own devices and they have a much larger budget.
