Dido what Joe said... proceeds could go toward rearing more fingerlings to add additional stockings or to stock new waters (or those taken off the stocking list like the Mon river). Also could go toward habitat improvements on musky waters.

With the availability of reproduction mounts I have no desire to keep a musky so they could make it catch and release state wide and I wouldn't mind. That will not happen and I'm not really saying it should but I do travel a few hours to the Buckhannon river in Wv to fish catch and release musky water.
