Heres my idea.

Upon purchasing your saltwater fishing liscene you receive a "Trophy Trout Harvest Tag".

With this tag you can harvest one trout excedding 26" per fishing season.

2 additional tags may be purchased for 100$ a tag; and the proceeds will fund trout tagging research.

Who's with me?

Why do you want to "Restrict" the harvest of big trout?

The current limit is set at 2 Trout over 25" long per DAY. We are allowed 2 per day or 730 big trout per year......if we were so lucky.

And you want to change this so we can only catch one trout over 26" per year?

Are you suggesting this change to make you "FEEL GOOD" like the CCA boys.
