its stupid how srcs fall into the 5 trout a day limit in freshwater, see it all the time on a lake here in port orchard, pictures at the store of big src's caught on power bait and pop gear and put on the stringer, last thursday my buddy who I go bass fishing with had his livewell full of huge dead src's about 7 or 8 of them all huge, he was claiming they swallowed his crappie jig but he just wanted reconition for it in his sad little ways. it pissed me off so bad.

here on the kitsap penninsula there are no big rivers just small creeks where alot of srcs spawn, every creek with a lake attached with a inlet creek has them I can name a bunch if I wanted to. and in lakes there is a five fish a day limit, go to long lake store if you ever drive off the fauntleroy ferry and take a look at all the trout photos in the store it will make you cringe.

I think that a src release in freshwater lakes around would be way to confusing and alot of crackers troll pop gear and they would never release them anyway. but it would be a good idea to do something on a few lakes where they are abundant, wdf dont stock lakes with a healthy population of cutthroat to much I noticed, maybe a few hundred in late summer.
