There was a time when the fish and wildlife were managed for th folks who paid for management. This was ok, but it tend to ignore species that were not eaten (most of the stuff out there). Still, the agency, especially WDG, knew who they worked for-the license buying public.

That knowledge has been lost. Like Salmo, I think they should look at producing a product, within the constraints of the ecosystems. When, for example, they found pheasant planting too expensive they shifted the cost to the user and let them choose.

They should be emphasizing production of fish that the license buyer's catch. If the State, or Feds, in their infinite wisdom want to produce fish for AK, BC, Trbies then let them pay for it. Why not ask AK to fund production of the fish they catch ours?
