    Thats nothing compared to the thousands of fish the USFWS kill right under our noses on the Colorado and Yampa Rivers. Maybe the news should inform people about that! Its amazing how many people do not know whats taking place. How about it News 11?

      Trout don't like lakes that get as warm as Highline yet the CPW continues to stock them. A bunch of wasteful morons!
