Yep... you know what I was talking about!
No I don't, that's why I keep asking!

quote:Your reaction was to delete a bunch of your posts (you can read them all in my quotes) and instead of answering me you try to spin it as me trolling!!!

Nope... I deleted ALL my posts that had to do with this conversation, except the ones that I thought others would benefit from!

quote: LOL. Can you please just answer if you were refering to releases or returning adults?

NOPE! This conversation is over unless you want to post a valid email address! Have a nice day... Cheers!
Why would I want to share my e-mail address on an internet forum? I get enough spam as it is.
Oh... I forgot... feel free to PM ME with any questions... as my email is correct!

Anyways, assuming you were refering to those numbers posted as hatchery releases (which they are) and you apply a really good ocean survival rate of 5% (what DFO is using for Robertson creek 2006 brood year releases) then the hatchery fish escapment off 55797 releases could be as high as 2790 to the approach area. Now assume some of those are harvested by lucky anglers and you get numbers simmilar to what I posted.

OH... I WON'T DELETE this one!

Getting back to the clipped issue....

Does the hatcheries funding not depend on results of returns?

I would think clipping as many as possible is the only way they could see if their programme is working, especially in a river with both wild and hatchery returns?
I kwon the quatse hatchery produces more pinks than anything else, due to the fact that they get better returns from them over the hatchery coho, yhus more funding.
I could be totally wrong here, just wondering.
