You better not be voting to change any of my put and take trout lakes...especially if you are not from the rural area...
As a past fisheries biologist...I am somewhat torn. They did try in Island lake...some hold outs...but mostly gone. They tried in Wabamun...but no luck. I am not sure where they could try but given the lake of lakes in Alberta...you would have to impact the local predators...pike and walleye to let them establish...then protect them with regs as they would be both susceptible to over harvest and also susceptible to habitat stresses.
Still...they have very limited range and we are outside of it. I would not worry about them moving around like say channel cats...
In a limited fishery...it would be highly utilized and add tremendous value as a fishing option.
I voted for supporting...
