How do you think we "Bass only guys" feel........... This state has done very little for the bass fisheries here, except make a bunch of lakes "bass management lakes" with slot limits and higher minimum length limits. Then they take a lake that's struggling as a bass fishery and introduce another predator species like Walleye or Northern Pike, and make them compete for the same food sources. :( There is no re stocking of bass anywhere in this state unless it is done privately on private waters. :(
I'm not living in fantasy land, as I understand that fisherman and bass tournaments play a small role in bass and other fish species mortality rates. But I agree that a larger part, if not all of the money spent on fishing licenses, ecpecially now that they have doubled in price and are now $40 per year, should go directly back into the fisheries themselves, and not just to re stock trout in lakes and streams. I in particular have never felt like I was getting my monies worth from the state!
Just my 2 cents.........
