Actually, tiger muskie were introduced to Green Lake to control a few scrap fish; those being perch, sun fish, as well as carp.

I've gone on guided bass fishing day trips, spent lots of time in the potholes when I was younger.. Just don't see the thrill in catching warmwater fish with such abundent quality fisheries in the NW.

A trout on a fly rod is all I need, strict c&r. Carp, however, are a blast, nothing doubles over a 5 weight quite like when one slurps up a fly.

As for access... Maybe this sounds bad, but I don't particularly like the idea of increased access on many lakes as poor access can keep all but the diehards out.
