Disease hits Pequest Hatchery Runway

[buzzbaiter]

Sorry but being a wild trout nut I have no sympathy for hatchery trout. If a disease wiped them all out it would be a landmark day in the history of trout mgt in NJ. A day to be celebrated! I'm only half kidding. I do think we stock too much and not in the right way but that's a beat horse discussion. I'd rather see my trout stamp money go towards stream improvement projects(improve cover/narrow channels/dam removal et al) and towards land purchases to improve access. NJ has plenty of good wild trout water we just can't fish it!.
