WDFW Q & A Thread - Questions for Stacie Kelsey, WDFW

[Stacie Kelsey]

Would it be a benefit for you guys to use a thread for WDFW specific questions? I know several threads recently have gone from the main topic to other topics because of WDFW questions. I thought maybe having a thread specific to WDFW topics may help?

Sounds good to me. Now, how do I put a sticky on this?

[Stacie Kelsey]

Topics so far:

Warmwater fisheries management - why do some lakes get rehbabbed?

Funding - where does funding come from and go to? (i.e., access boat launches repair and maintenance)

I am trying to find the email I sent to WDFW a while back on the rehab of lakes it was about the time they did sprague lake and the answer was very vague. And we all know how that turned out.

Stacie youre a good person. Do you really want 10,000 fisherpeople asking you questions? Youre a brave person.

[Stacie Kelsey]

Stacie, I think this would be a perfect idea. I'll see if Marc will put a sticky on it.

Can you also get answers on big game management as well?

Stacie, I too think this is a great idea!

[Stacie Kelsey]

We have great Wildlife bios here in the office that I have used in the past for people that have emailed me wildlife questions, so absolutely.

Great idea! Thank you!

[Mike Carey]

Thanks Stacie, loks like we have our own personal contact to WDFW, cool!

I made it a sticky post. Hope you don't get overwhelmed.

IMHO I like the general idea, but then you would have to wade through one long thread to find the subject matter you are looking for which could get tedious (especially when there might be 5 or 10 subject floating at once). Better yet, maybe dialog with Mike Carey and see about a WDFW forum section, that way each subject would have it's own thread, and next year, when the same questions are asked, you can just refer people to that thread instead of repeating yourself.

[Stacie Kelsey]

I think if you guys want to make it a forum section or just this thread - whichever you think would best fit your needs. I just wanted to avoid all the subject changes in threads which I seem to be doing a lot lately!

[Stacie Kelsey]

Thanks Stacie, loks like we have our own personal contact to WDFW, cool!

I will monitor the forum as much as possible. As always, if I don't respond right away, it's because of work schedule. I will do my best to get to the forum at least once a day or more.

Get me a moose smiley and I'll be happy camper! LOL!

Forum for WDFW with seperate threads for each subject gets all my votes. And I'm old so I get to vote multiple times.

[Stacie Kelsey]

Are they smileys? I can't see them. Mike used to have a cool one from the old version of the forum.

[Amx]

They are gifs from a smilie web site;

I'll save them to my computer and repost them, maybe you can see them then.
