I don't get the thrill of fishing for stupid "stockies" anyway.. They are as dumb as a box of rocks, and if you like to eat your catch, they taste and smell AWFUL.. Like a combination of beef liver and dry cat food. I would rather them stock fish that can survive and grow during the warm weather, and provide long term fishing opportunities.. Stocked trout in muddy little ponds die of asphyxiation when the water gets warm if they aren't caught first. I dunno, just seems like a waste.. Those fish should go where they can survive if not caught.. just my opinion for whatever tiny bit its worth.. bob
