how can we get more people to keep a limit of laker pups?

I have been thinking about this lately and trying to come up with ways to get others to actually keep the lake trout pups they catch. The fact is they are overpopulating the gorge, resulting in lower numbers of kokanee and bigger lake trout when compared with even just 5 years ago. The pups are preying on kokanee eggs, and feed like crazy on other resources that would be beneficial to the bigger lake trout. We love to eat pups as much as we do kokes, so every trip we try to get a limit for everyone to take home. So if you are not taking home what you catch, then don't be surprised if you see even fewer numbers of kokes and big lakers in the future.
