Members carolina-rig-01 Posted September 8, 2007 Members Posted September 8, 2007 ok first off i am not a trout angler, i am a bass angler (with some crappie thrown in here and there). but put this into terms i can understand...would this be kinda like stocking perch in the place of largemouth bass? i mean the both are of the same family but still miles apart in the game fish world. If you can read this thank a teacher. And since it is english thank a soldier!
Daddy Carp Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 YEPPER!!! ............ http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20621511/ --- ACCORDING TO THIS SITE, THE SELF-PROCLAIMED EXPERTS ON HOW & WHAT WE AND MOTHER-NATURE SHOULD DO AND WHEN.............BOTCHED UP ANOTHER ONE.

Problem is, Mother Nature wasn't circumvented by biologists making mistakes in identifying cutthroat trout subspecies. It was circumvented by anglers and biologists stocking cutthroat trout streams with non-native species (like rainbows and browns). You can certainly make the argument that the rainbows and browns make for "better" fishing opportunities, since they usually grow bigger and fight a bit harder. But in most of the streams where the native cutthroats were supplanted by non-native trout, the only feasible stretches to re-establish the cutthroats are in headwater areas above natural barriers like waterfalls that the invasive non-natives can't penetrate, and in those headwater streams the growth rates of browns and rainbows are so slow that they aren't much, if any, "better" than the cutthroats. I've caught Colorado river cuts, Snake River fine-spotted cuts, Yellowstone cuts, and westslope cuts. I found them all to be beautiful, interesting fish in gorgeous settings. The Snake River through Grand Teton National Park is one of the most spectacular fishing destinations anywhere (even with the crowds) and catching native fish from it just puts icing on the cake. The little creek in Idaho where I caught my first westslope cuts was remote and probably had not been fished by a dozen anglers in the last ten years. The big Yellowstone cuts I caught on Slough Creek 20 miles from the nearest parking lot were something special, and the 21 inch Yellowstone cut survivor I caught on the Yellowstone in Paradise Valley was one of my most memorable catches. We've got enough rivers full of transplanted browns and rainbows and brookies...surely we can afford to restore a few creeks to the trout that Mother Nature put there, even if mistakes are occasionally made.

Giving them some credit, it would be more like trying to stock a florida strain large mouth and instead stocking kentuckys/spots...
