[quote Jacksonman] You know your statement is ridiculous. [/quote]
Actually, it was YOUR statement. Not mine.
You said "best use of resources and funds". How do you know whether or not the biologists have already looked into the possibility of managing Strawberry with tiger trout, and come to the determination that they would not be the "best use of the resource and funds"?
If tiger trout were a great option for Strawberry -- WHY AREN'T THEY ALREADY BEING USED???
Personally, I believe it to be hatchery production. The question that MUST be answered before any further discussions can take place is: can hatcheries raise enough tiger trout to accommodate Strawberry without negatively affecting other places currently managed with tiger trout? Has anyone asked that question of Alan Ward, or Mike Slater (or Drew Cushing or Roger Wilson)?
