Purists run for your safe space--

If there was not the many miles of stocked MARGINAL water, keeping all types of anglers content, the Class A water would be extremely overfished. IMO a lot of the Class A water is already over fished. Note: MARGINAL water, not Class A...

I don't think Class A streams would get much more attention than they already do. Many of the Class A streams are more difficult to access than most stocked trout streams. Most truck chasers prefer the easy button. 😉

What's the definition of "marginal" water?

At least down here in Lancaster county, just about everything stocked streams would qualify as marginal water. Most get too warm for trout to survive through the summer so it is just stock and harvest before they die

That's exactly where I want stockies dumped. Doesn't hurt any of the pretty fish.

IMO marginal water is where you may catch a juvenile wild fish once in a while, not every time out. My point is if these waters were not stocked at all, all that was in them was the rarely caught wild trout, the LARGE well known Class A water would be overrun because even the fly only guys would not be dispersed. I'm not a blue liner and none of my friends are true blue liners.

This post by pfbc hasn’t been very well received across Facebook and instagram. A lot of comments on stocking over natives, corruption, wasted money etc . For whatever that’s worth.

Also an equal amount of stock “More
Bigger Faster!” Comments.

I wish they would stock more smaller fish as the hatcheries have a total load number of lbs each could raise. Might as well produce the most you can let's see how or if the new wild trout waters become class A.
I would like to see the lists of class B,c,andD's waters.

What I'd like to see is a single comprehensive list that combines the Class A list with the Natural Reproduction List with all sections listed (instead of the "headwaters to mouth" used so often) and the classification for each section PLUS the Stocked Trout Waters sections.

It's not that I really care so much about the wild trout classifications. I've I fished more than a few streams on the Natural Reproduction list and had great days with out knowing. I just hate having to reference three separate lists to decide where I want to fish and which sections to avoid and/or at what times.
