Commentary: Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission should cut back on trout stocking
Published: , in Outdoor News
Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission’s trout stocking program isn’t well. What ails it? Money troubles. The commission recently staved off cuts to stocked trout by taking enormous taxpayer bailouts.
Over $100 million from a pool of tax money, Capital Funds, that’s intended for public infrastructure (roads, bridges, etc.) was instead used to pay for hatchery maintenance the commission couldn’t afford. So did this huge sum of taxpayer money solve the agency’s hatchery money troubles?
