Like many people have said, Texas is proof that this kind of program works with its Share Lunker Program. I think some of you all have made good points about how relying on the fishermen to take care of the fish during transport is sketchy and that the state should just shock them up to keep them healthier, but I think if they did that, more people would get upset that the state is taking trophy fish out of lakes without giving people the chance to catch them. Also, the state would have to use a lot of resources to shock up a decent amount of trophy fish. Let them work on other things and have the fish be brought to them.
