Have not submitted anything through any F&G club but contacted SRD over a year ago had a few correspondence with them. Their main response was that there was some much money spent on restocking now that to get involved in restocking another species would take to much money away from on going projects. I do believe this to a degree you don't want to lose what has be cultivated over the years. The only problem with this situation so much of the stocking is put and take that it will always be an ongoing issue and will never cease to drain the funds. The only recourse is to allow privatization of Bass ponds and lakes as they have done with trout in other areas. There is no doubt a Bass fishery in Alberta as a self sustained fishery is highly unlikely in the near future what could happen in the distant future with hybrids or breeding its hard to say what could be done.
