OK guys, here is your chance to complain about the Nevada Wildlife's decision to stop planting trout at Lake Mead, Cottonwood Cove, and Placer/Aztec.
The meeting is at 4747 Vegas Drive, Las Vegas tomorrow evening at 6-9 PM. Tuesday November 29th.....
I have called the Nevada Striper Club president and he is going to get as many as he can to come to the meeting to voice their complaints about stopping trout plants. Mike Pergola is going, Ryan Webb, Rod Howard, Jeff Smith and others are going to complain!
We pay for trout stamps, $10 entry fees to get into the Lake Mead National Recreation area and $10 for a boat....$10 for a trout stamp. They stock the inner city ponds where birds eat most of the fish, but not the lakes where trout fishermen and striper fishermen fish....and it is great for the Las Vegas area for business.
I was the key figure that championed the drive to get trout stocks going again at Castaic, Silverwood and Pyramid lakes in SoCal when they stopped stocking trout there in the late 80's. I wrote letters, contacted news writers and made many calls to the Fish and Game and complained heavy! I was at the Fillmore fish hatchery and confronted a trout stocking driver and his boss and they told me they were not in the business of feeding stripers and bass and I told them "look here buster, those are not your trout, they are ours (the fishermen) and we pay your wages and we want them stocked!"
After all the complaints, they started stocking trout again...
So to everyone of you out there, I would show up at that meeting and voice your complaints; The more the better...
Special thanks to Mike Pergola, he got this going....thanks man....
