Well I doubt any ulterior motive to dumping Goldens around E. Wash.
willy nilly other than probably incompetence or oversupply due to lack
of labor to pack them into high lakes, where they've been planted off
and on for quite a few years.

But who knows why with the current quality of leadership in F&G.

What I'm really wishing is that someone with some pull or some of the clubs
over there would take up the banner and get F&G to plant Eagle Lake Strain in Lenora,
Grimes,Alkali,and many of the other unmanaged lakes having too high
an alkali content for fisheries currently.

Our present E. Washington Trout Waters are getting loved to death. We need to
manage every lake capable of producing for the recreational trout program. Eagle
lake strain would be one way to increase the number of fishable lakes and
provide some pleasant surprises for those of us fishing those lazy lahontins.
