k2 / Wiper -- I don't know if you guys just don't read, or what...
...but I don't think anyone is complaining about stocking tm's in Scofield. I think it's just the opposite. We are all for the tiger musky. In fact, I'm all for the wipers too! The only issue with wipers is the elevation issue - which the DWR is also very well aware of.
Nobody on this thread, or any other thread, is asking for Scofield to be managed as a trout fishery. I don't get where you guys keep getting that info. It has been said numerous times in this thread alone that we are for other species. I don't think Scofield needs to be managed as a "put and take" rainbow trout fishery. It shouldn't be.
What I, and many others, don't get is this: Why do you guys want to wait?
Would you rather catch big musky in 2 years or would you rather wait 5-7?
Would you rather catch big wipers in 2 years or would you rather wait 5-7?
Would you rather catch 20" trout in 2 years or would you rather wait 8-10?
Would you rather be catching 12" catchable stocked cutthroat today or 18" cutthroat in 2 years, 20" rainbows, 35"+ tm, and 20" wipers in 2 years?
Keep in mind: year number 1 is already past. (actually, it's more like year 20)
You guys baffle me.
