They sure have the money to do all these culvert projects that do not produce any fish...

about 95% of all the funds go to pay salaries and benefits...

back before the 2000's there were lots of private fish farms that were stocking steelhead,, people were raising their own fish and releasing them... I know of several,, Union River,, Sheerwood creek and others... Some just had rearing ponds connected to the creeks and some one they knew would deliver fry and some did the whole process themselves...

I think that's what we need to get back to,, fish farming as a hobby,, farming fish is not rocket science,, especially when its for recreation and not profit...

The government creates the problems,, if the government is not operating there are no problems...

As an example we have a government shutdown and nobody notices,, meaning we don't need them... We need to defund the state and all the agencies and take matters into our own hands regarding everything... The government regulates us,, tells us what we can and cant do,,, the government is not useful...
