[QUOTE="Oklahomabassin, post: 3642570, member: 1546"] Look at the amount of bass they raise in hatcheries to stock while at the same time say they are over populated. They have to appease the bass tourney guys (big money) crying for more bass and bigger bass. Those same guys also throw a fit for anyone who keeps a bass for the table. They should have focused on intense study and managed harvest to lower the Northern strain in select lakes before they started heavy stocking of Florida strain bass. Otherwise they are feeding a big portion of native bass with the stocked fingerlings. Trying to make management sense with many of the Bass anglers is a lost cause. If they don't catch as many or as big as they expect, then the lake needs more Bass. Habitat, Forage be damned. Stock more Bass! [/QUOTE]
