In my opinion it will not do much good if there is not a warden in Fayette. I also agree about keeping smallies. Ive kept 1 the last 15 years or so and that was because it was hooked too deep on a crank and was gushing blood. I may shoot an e-mail to the guy over our fisheries district and see what can be done. The guy had every right to keep the bass he paid to fish in KY just broke my heart as that fish was an old veteran. The overharvesting of the other species is crazy. My 1st trip I caught 9 trout, had no stamp so released them all. I got smart and bought 1 after that.They stock the lake with 12 inch cats and trust me people are cleaning it out. Last three trips ive caught probably 100 bullheads and 5 or so trout yet only 4 or 5 channel cats.
