Me again.

Well first off I wouldn't want Kress to be a quality lake as that my quality channel catfish lake!

I don't want to ruin any oppportunities for the kids, that is why I haven't made a big push to change Klineline although that lake has the biggest problem with people grading fish.

I want to see more opportunities for kids too, and I wouldn't expect them to have to use lures or flies!! Although I know there are some out there that are tremendous fly fishers!

It's not easy trying to balance between not only the user groups, but the different fish.

There is a big push to offer more warmwater fisheries right now! Which is really hard for us!! A lot of our waters are mixed species, but trying to find some to enhance with warmwater fish when you plant a lot of trout!

That is why I picked Kress for the channel cats. It's a great warmwater lake and we do put some trout in their too.

You guys have had some REALLY great responses to this issue! I like hearing all of your opinions, for and against the issues because it helps us figure out ways we can try and help everyone.
