i posted above, now with a clear head more intense posting. I have never fished the Fraser and probably will never get the chance to with the way things are going. authorities wilthmore brains have have said for a few decades that farm and wild fish do not mix. i belive the atlantics here on the east coast have been in the same situation, or fear of , infecting the wild stocks of salmon. this is a great loss, to allow a farming operation in a known migratory route should be a crimminal offense.
They were delicious. Especially smoked.
