Where I do think there is potential, if they were to stock tigers or browns for strictly C&R purposes in lakes alongside the rainbows. Then the trophy guys are happy, and the rest of us get a fish fry. Even in that scenario, I think browns make more sense than Tigers.
Now if they really want to controll the carp populations, I wonder if Tiger Muskies would be a viable option? Stateside in the north west they have been used in an attempt to erradicate unwanted species for eventual re-stocking.

Introducing an invasive species to eradicate another invasive species is about the dumbest thing I’ve heard today.
