You know I was at the meeting, and for the most part agreed with the biologists/F&G's decision based on the science and creating more opportunity. Some folks just aren't as educated or hard core about fishing as others so a little opportunity shouldn't be a terrible thing. But how they could be so naive and not think that whats going on wasn't going to happen is ridiculous! There has got to be several hundred fish coming out of there daily, with these numbers I really have a hard time seeing it not having a substantial impact on what in many peoples opinions is a highly respected game fish. The opportunity for others is a great idea but the over exploitation is disappointing. I did recall the one DNR fellow saying that it will be going downhill so get out there and enjoy it while you can, hmmmmm.
