Well I can see that I am clearly outnumbered on this issue, and I would like to thank you all who came to my side of the fence. Some one mentioned that this program is probably paid for by the increase sales of permits. MY question, is a trout stamp required to fish, not keep, but fish for these trout during c and r season? If only a missouri fish permit is required, then most kids would be age exempt and not require that permit. What are the reqirements for out of staters who border and live so close to our urban fisheries? I am sure they take advantage.
