I would hope these idiots would understand that those lakes have been managed for the type of fish that are there. I mean strawberry has always been a trout lake! The has always been the bear with its own eco system that DWR needs to manage. I like WEP suggestion of checking live wells. That certainly wouldn't hurt. And since they have someone there at the gate anyway. It should be easy to have a look. That does not hold true for the unmaned entry points. I certainly hope they start an education program to help some of these *fellow* anglers understand how much harm they could be doing. I think a section in the proclamation devoted to educating us anglers would do wonders to help curb this practice. I do understand that it is only a few, but it only takes a few!
