    the Dec needs to step up and stock all tributaries not just the most popular its ridiculous we had trout stress in wayne county ny they don't stock any stream anymore around here it's bullshit.They were to busy stocking game fish in the lakes now all the bait fish are gone,perch,bluegills,crappie,sunfish all these fish need stocking no more of them huge schools of trout and salmon eating everything up.There are alot of mad anglers cause we spend money so the proceeds to the state are not being spent the way it should be.The bays lakes and streams of wayne county and fingerlakes need all to be stocked.We stocking being done at all, especially in wayne county.We need answer's.

    while we applaud the idea the only way that it can be enforced is to have rangers at every trout fishery in the ADK. that will be the only way to enforce. If entitled Karen's will pack a case of beer into the back country and leave the emptys in wilderness sites what's a few bait fish to them.
