Planting warm water fish? Why would the WDFW bother doing this when the warm water fish get plenty of help elsewhere: local midnight biologist, nature, and the ability of these fish to reproduce in these lakes much better than trout...

More\improved boat launches? We don't really want big power boats on all lakes. Some lakes they are needed: Lake WA, Lake Samm, Roofus woods, banks, potholes, ... These larger lakes can be fished much better and safer with a power boat. Other smaller lakes are better fished with car toppers, from the bank, or float tubes\pontoon boats. Variety is good - there are plenty of lakes that fit all these needs and you just have to plan your trips accordingly.

Triploids in C&R waters only? If the only place to catch decent sized fish is in those waters, do you really want the crowds to start heading out to your favorite semi quiet quality lake? I wouldn't mind that if it also meant WDFW started making more lakes selective rules with smaller or no limits allowed to spread out the pressure (look how crowded dry falls and lenice\nunally get). But the 'save the good fish for me' attitude does not make good sense. Part of the draw to these opening day lakes is to find a lake that not only gets a large plant of normal stockers, but also a decent number of triploids and even some broodstock. Variety in size makes the experience that much better. Look at the pics dogfish posted. Were those trout wasted?

Brown trout - I think fishing for these guys is awesome. And getting a brown while fishing for bows or other fish is a nice bonus. I don't mind feeding these browns a few stocker trout so that anglers get a chance to tangle with a big brown now and then.

Otters and ospreys (and others) - many folks enjoy sharing the water and yes, the fish with the local wild life. I agree that if they become a big nuisance the WDFW should address that, but part of fishing is enjoying nature. If you have a private pond, then you should be responsible to cover it with mesh or find other ways to keep out wildlife (besides shooting protected species). If your family really needs the meat, save the money from buying your gear, license, gas, etc and buy them some food.
