There is a fine line in regard to that. If your limits are too conservative, thereby leaving too many individuals in the population, they can out eat themselves, therefore reducing quality.

Its a simple concept. You have X number of prey. If your predator population increases beyond the carrying capacity of the habitat, the health of that population will decline.

You have to take a certain number out, and by doing so, you leave less individuals to feed on that same prey population.

Yes, at some point you can do more harm than good, but I don't think the 25 trout limit was harming anything. That is evident by the studies that have been done.

Quality has gone down ever since limit change

Look at STAR weight each year after and look at Shoot Out weights after

Since the limit change " Trophy Lake " status it's been all but trophy lake !!

Too many small fish left in the lake and we are not taking out enough , on Bio told me our lake can handle a 30 -40 trout person limit

yep, people don't realize leaving too many fish causes overpopulations and that mean not enough food source to support the numbers so that reduces fish sizes.

its not lower limits = big trout, its more food source = big trout

but many want to turn saltwater speck fishing into catch and release like bass fishing
