In the official release the gov is quick to take credit for providing this fishery to the citizens.

I think they only did it so they could sell a few licenses...which they did.

It's unfortunate that the huge number of WDF employees can't be held accountable for what they have done to the resource. At least they should loose careers and jobs along with the public sector people who had their lives hanging on fishing that is no longer permitted. Instead the gov has them out checking hooks and generally harassing the public.
