What do you mean “you people?”
The warm water stamp helped expand the warm water species hatchery at fort peck. Passed through the state legislature. Cost as much as 4 dozen worms. Good lord, you people really love to b***h about things but not pay for them.
when people say the reason that they gave up fly fishin..is because rich snooty people ruined it for them ..are turds...don't blame it on the trout.....it was magical to see a trout explode on the water..40 yrs ago..and still the same today...if the haters would ever read a book..read..or re read..the river why...I am currently drowning smelt..the most red kneck way to harvest some pike meat..but I am also casting flies and getting into spring browns,,,,yes...snooty rich trout fisherman are one thing..but to say that's why you don't fly fish anymore? means you are lazy....and have no confidence in your own skill that you need a bucket of worms and a 12 pack of beer to catch a fish....
Thank God I'm not one of "you people"?I did pay, but I live in Northwest Montana, ya know the place where the only known fish (to FWP) is a Westslope Cutthroat.I personally like to pay for what I get. If I fish and have to pay extra to fish a certain lake then "some" of that money should come back to that lake, Right?The problem is in most cases it did not, or if it did FWP at least in Kalispell doesn't know or will not say.Maybe FWP used some of that money to take Perch out of Lake Mary Ronan and sent them over to Cascade Lake in Idaho so "they" can have one of the best Perch fisheries around?
this thread started out with a legitimate concern..and turned into an ultimate shi? show...how are we gonna manage the fisheries? when there is such a knee jerk...uneducated...RA CIST...and depressing response....it started with a legitimate post about the current state of warm water fisheries..and turned into bashing guides....what a joke....but I think in some ways wenger brought it on to himself....as much as I agree with so much he says...hit a hornets nest..expect to get stung....no matter how solid your position..i grew up with cows...in many ways...ranchers are the ultimate liberal but yet conservationists....su re I know the whole spiel....I don't want cows degrading the slopes and water qualities of riparian zones..of course...but when you brought cows up?....its touchy....when I was young..we had 300 head on 1500 acres.. I know the time has changed...warm water fisheries management...was the issue that you brought up....not cows..or guides....cows and guides should be shared for another post....
wenger even if you are a eye sore like you claim my statements are not personal. i have nothing against guides . my problem is adjusting to the times,people,etc. i have fished the mo for 40 yrs and cant adjust to the traffic on the river. the fault is mine not the guides.hope you have a great spring, summer, and fall. no hard feelings i hope.
