One day we will reminisce about the amazing browns and rainbows we caught in YNP as this is the start of the backslide down a slippery slope of meddling in not just the fish but the entire food chain that supports them. It's been real.
How about getting a great place like YNP free of invasive species? Thats what these brookies represent as well as your beloved browns. I think its great.
Terrible idea. Just shows how backward MFW is...
