And how does Dr. Purchase plan on proving that virgin spawning offspring are “superior” to repeat spawning grilse? That sounds like total baloney and a way to open the gates for large fish retention. Quality is a subjective term and should be left to mother nature (natural selection, evolution) to determine which eggs/offspring are of higher quality; NOT Dr. Purchase.
