Just an observation from the peanut gallery, but I've stocked many a pond for guys that were avowed "anti high fence" hunters. Lots of competition for my spent brood stock steelhead, guys would get really pissy if they couldn't get them one year..... We used to sell canned pheasant hunts at the RMEF banquet, for crying out loud. No one ever saw the irony.....
As long as the critter gets eaten and they don't break the law, I really don't care if they shoot a rabbit, a pheasant, a cow, a pig or a deer.....
You're raising steelhead?
Didn't know you had access to salt water.
Gotta admit, I've eaten a boatload of stocker trout in my life. I just can't quite equate that with a high fence, pick your animal and we'll hold them until you get here deal though. There would have to be a diver below putting my hook in the fishes mouth.
But, I get what you're saying, as long as they eat it (or someone makes use of it) and it's legal.............Oh well, to each their own.
