Ernie,
I agree with you 100 percent. -- James Ehlers Outdoors Magazine www.outdoorsmagazine.net "Ernie" wrote in message . .. James, I have no objection to stocking where natural reproduction can't take place. Stocking places where natural reproduction is possible is detrimental to natural trout. Ernie "James Ehlers" wrote in message . net... Why be disgusted at something that gives people pleasure? Happy people are nicer to be around ![]() where put and take stocking occurs where natives would not exist anyway. -- James Ehlers Outdoors Magazine www.outdoorsmagazine.net "Ernie" wrote in message . .. Yes, 1. Stocked trout don't belong in any water where natural reproduction is possible. 2. Only Catch and Release should be allowed in these waters. I came across a bunch of hatchery trout in a lake that people were trying to catch. I told them to throw a hand full of small gravel at them. They did, which sent the fish into a feeding frenzy and they started catching them. I walked away in disgust and wondered if any of the people knew what it was like to catch a real trout with a full set of fins. Ernie "Gene C" wrote Even more amazing was the fact that within a couple of hours of going into the water they were going after woolly buggers! Any comments? |
