This actually reminds me a great deal of my day spent trying to fish Hickory
Run last August. The garbage, noise, screaming kids running through the
stream, tripping over my line as they went....sigh

I'm not as familiar with eastern waters as I am with those in the
Rockies, but it seems to me that there are numerous waters back east
that are being stocked that could be better managed with less stocking
and possibly more restrictive limits. Montana did a series of studies on
the effects of stocking in waters that have good natural reproduction
and found that the stocking of catchables actually reduces the number
and size of the fish in those waters.

Well sure, rub in that expansive trout paradise!! Why did they start
stocking in Montanta anywho?? Must have been those Easterners moving
West.

What is "float stocking" ?

Float Stocking is polluting the river from a boat or raft.

Scott, I was a charter member of the Catherines Creek TU chapter close
to 30 years ago. Our first effort was to plant a couple of thousand
trees bankside and the second was to convince the farmers to keep
their livestock from eradicating the streambanks. Any update on
what's going on with that stream? I started fishing that stream
somewhere in the mid-sixty's the 1st of April of course. I can't ever
hear that that stream supported year round trout but rather lake-run
spawners. Bill in VA.

I have no bias against any particular type of fisherman, but if C&R
isnt enough maybe creating specialzed sections would help? Ie. Bait
Fishing only, in addition to the artificial lures only, or Fly fishing
only sections. It would be tough to see some of the stretches go, but
the bait fisherman do have the same rights as anyone else.

Heresy, but I like the idea. Fair is fair.

Only a fool would refuse to believe in luck. Only a damn fool would rely on it.
