Going for the Gold
#48
[quote brookieguy1]How can I sleep at night? Quite well unless my back aches a bit. I wasn't attacking the twins at all, just the choice on naming a fragile water. I have enough experience in alpine fish and fisheries to have a fairly good judgement on what is or isn't negative impact. Brook trout on Boulder Mountain are what they are because of several factors. Fishermen keeping their numbers low is a factor that helps keep the population thinned and the fish size up. I only allowed names of lakes that weren't sensitive to angler pressure and could use a bit of harvest. Boulder top IS somewhat distant and difficult to get to, unlike Murdock Basin that is an hour and a half from downtown SLC.
True, golden trout are not native to the High Uintas. Neither are brook trout or grayling. In fact, none of the higher Uinta lakes had any trout in them, not even cutthroats. It's all man's hand. I guess we should just not care it about huh?[/quote]

I know BG1 and LOAH and 100% agree with both of them.. their credibility, and ethics are SOLID. There are a lot of unwritten rules MOST of us live by as True anglers. I don't Know the Twins and don't really want to see them on any water I fish..( I doubt I Ever Will ) there are still tons of places that "Hotspotting" and the internet have yet to effect . I think people who "BLAST" out names of sensitive water are ignorant tools..
