They only started this like last year, so the fact that you describe the fishing their poor from the last decade should show it was worth the try to remove brown trout to recover the brook trout population.
If your upset Rhinehart doesn't have a good brown trout fishery anymore, you can drive to the next stream over and catch even better brown trout.
I think this was a good project by f&w, there's already success with a nice brook trout population growing. The end result is a quality brook trout stream while the numerous brown trout streams remain throughout the state.
I really don't get how anyone can be mad at this project when they consider themselves an advocate for wild trout.
