[quote RockyRaab]The fairly consistent rumor is that DWR doesn't want to cause "minnow bucket biology." Which is to say they don't want lakes that don't have "spiny humped piranha chubs" to be planted with them by anglers.
I'd be content if they'd allow a crawfish-like program that said "Only live minnows trapped or netted from a given lake may be used on that lake. No live minnows may be transported from any lake."
For a start, anyway.[/quote]
If that would work, I'd be for it. It won't. People feel privileged to move whatever species they want to move as it is. The UDWR just got through poisoning Payson Lake to remove goldfish.
