I did get a guy that told me "well they need mud flats to rest on" to which i responded-"aren't they saying that there isn't enough open water and they want to burn it so there won't be so much floating turf and mudflats and make more open water".  I think the fact is that they don't want the fishery to be very good as this will result in less public use and reduce the amount of time they have to spend "babysitting" the place. |
x2 pretty much sums it up imo
