Fisheries management and conservation is set up for sustainable harvest and populations, not exploiting as much of the resource as you can in the present till it collapses..
People would have lots of reason to fish if this Province would use money from lisences to pay for more fish stocking. Kind of like the rest of North America does. Saskatchewan has less anglers and more lakes, plus less $. Why can they stock more fish than Alberta ??? Other than trout !
