Its interesting to think that we have people *judging* other people on how, when or where they fish.
Personally, I think its odd someone would come down on another for choosing to go after fish recently stocked - if it were me and I was just getting into the sport... anything to give me an easy confidence booster is exactly what I would go for! Flyfishing has a much higher barrier (both economically and skill-wise) than those of the common bait chucker.
So be supportive of your fellow fly fisher!...especially the newbies or those that are trying to get their kids into it.
In addition to that, stocked lakes keeps the crowds away from the other spots to fish. So if nothing else, you now have something to be thankful for this upcoming Turkey Day.
But since we're on the subject, I'm curious for your answer on how do you think spots like the Nunally chain, Lone, Pass, or any other lakes mentioned on here got fish to begin with?
Here, I'll save you the effort...
Answer: they were stocked at some point.
So if you're going to lay into someone for going after fish recently stocked, keep you're high brow comments to yourself and be glad they aren't crowding you at your favorite spot.
