Found it interesting.

And when he presents himself the way he does in the interview it is way easier to get behind his message. Online he takes a completely different approach and it makes him come across as the heel in the situation. I have tried telling him that and I don't know if he just doesn't care or if he doesn't get it.

No doubt.. we've all tried to reason with him.

Well he isn't wrong regardless of his popularity here or elsewhere.

The comment below is me playing the devil's advocate.

What if only brook trout were stocked and they weren't being stocked over wild brook trout? Then we wouldn't be spreading invasives, right?
