However, if you want to meet your goal and you are willing to make concessions then the idea that I presented to you makes allot of sense IMHO.

If you are not willing to make concessions, then why in hell would someone want to give you something of theirs that they already have? Think about it for a minute. Why would your way be better than mine and why should I give up what I have so you can get what you want?
I think the confusion lies in your definition of "trophy".

Your sense of ownership of the stocked trout or native fish seems a little odd. The fish belong to all Albertans equally I would think. How to spread them around fairly would seem to make sense. Self entitlement is a form of greed that is deep seated and misguided IMHO.
