silverfox "This also doesn't account for streams like the Nescopeck where most of the tribs are Class A brook but the mainstem itself is stocked."
I have fished all of these many tiny overgrown and very cold class A nescopeck tribs repeatedly over the last dozen years. And some others that arent class A. Never caught or seen a single BT (nor have I witnessed another person fishing such tiny and very overgrown tribs for that matter). My 2000 dated Landis says the nescopeck was stocked then, 20 years ago. I doubt BT will now suddenly take over all those 7' wide supercold Nescopeck tribs unless the stocking is stopped.
Rleep "Additionally, as I am sure you are aware, streams are dynamic systems and species colonization has a lot more to do with agreeable physical and chemical conditions than who dumped a bucket of brown trout 17 feet downstream from the bottom of the Class A ST section."
indeed.
