I guess I missed the original part of the post, but wondered if something other had been deleted.
It's important that we have this kind of conversations because I don't think everyone knows all the rules and maybe even the reason for the rules. I think being open to learning more can help us understand the reason for the regulations and if folks understand then we usually get buy in and they help to support that in the future. As the concern for bucket biologists is understood, then it's easier to know why we don't want live fish moved around. Sometimes it takes some years and experience to understand the full story and so in those cases it's important that the regs are followed until you gain a more complete understanding. It's easy to think you want a certain kind of fish in an area, but without knowing all the effects you could really shoot yourself in the foot like when they brought carp into this area. There's always unforeseen consequences that can bite ya. Anyway good conversation. Later J
