what kind of organization pisses away money on something that has zero perpetuating return on the investment like this, and why would they WANT this George?

Saltonstall and other deeper lakes would have not been open to fishing now- that part I understand as to why they would not stock here. But why even do this? Its not even like youll have a shot at most of these fish between now and july. Then they belly up.

Couldnt we have invested that cash into ANYTHING else that would pay dividends for the future? bluegills, crappies, any self sustaining fish at all like catfish or perch. Even a baitfish program to increase food for whats in there. Who are these people that make the decisions, and have they ever been to winchester, which is a flooded timberfield with stumps everywhere? the OPPOSITE of lake trout water.

Dumb. Head up our asses dumb, with no thought for down the line.

Put and take fisheries should be easy access. Its a lowe unit ass whoopin fishing winchester. Good luck trolling one up there!
