Food for thought: The TFF has the largest breeding population of Loons in the State (Eagles and Osprey too). Some of the reasons for this are the vast amounts of undeveloped shoreline and low boat traffic (opening weekend and 4th of July are exceptions). Trolling the TFF will certainly result in snags resulting in lenghthy monofilament line left behind, for example.

I'm not saying that trolling will adversely affect them, but has the DNR even taken this into consideration and if so, what are their findings? Will the increased mororized boat traffic adversely affect nesting areas, for example?

Again, I'm not saying it will have an adverse affect, but would like to know if its been considered before we find out the hard way. The TFF is a special place, Wisconsin's Scenic Wilderness Waters Area. I'ld like to keep it that way.
