This thread is partially due to reading a variety of other threads here but specifically troutbert's thread on wild brookies. How many of you folks harvest stockies out of streams with good wild trout populations to remove the competition and encourage the wild trout? I really don't harvest stockies often and usually not until later in the year when the early season pressure has died off if I do harvest. But given our concerns of stocking over wild fish, and obviously natives in particular, it makes me wonder if I should harvest more to remove these fish and their pressure from the wild trout.
