To my mind, a stream like the Lyre should be stocked heavily with steelhead. As Salmo said it is short and non-productive. It is also very accessible to walking angler. The tradeoff is that you don't plant other streams.

I don't understand why everywhere has to fished to death; harvest what nature provides.

I also think that the current crash in salmon, SRKWs, and seabirds south of AK is tied very closely to the pink and chum hatcheries up there and in Japan and Russia. They are eating the zooplankton (demonstrated in the literature). So, planting all those hatchery fish destroys fisheries. Who would have thunk it?
