I finally bought a season fishing permit this year that I had been avoiding since the last time they raised the cost, then they go and do this. It's really not very smart, if they want me to keep coming and spending my money in Idaho. Wyoming has just as good of fishing and is the same distance, so if Idaho doesn't want me renting rooms, buying gas, tackle, food and permits, I'll go to Wyoming instead and spend my money there... Very little chance this move will save the invasives from finding their way into Idaho waters because most of those that have money to spend long enough on Powell to get infected also have enough money to pay the extra fee... I see it as more of the keep poorer outsiders out sentiment that some like to pass on... Problem is it does very little good only prohibits those that like to enjoy it... Guess they don't understand that we like to make one or two trips a year and that high of price either means we will not come or we'll just use our inflatables... Later J
When things get stressful think I'll go fish'en and worry about it tomorrow!
