I would have to sort of think, paying folks a reward or bounty, is cheaper than the long term damages they will do, and irreversible things they can kill and wipe out!

I know its not a perfect deal, but it sure might make more folks help out in solving these issue's

I'd bet these fish would make good fertilizer?? could be sold after collecting at places and sold or given away as such?

just food for thought here>

a s I think we need more possible solutions, than just folks complaining about things

were becoming a society that seems to know all the problems, but doesn;t solve many any more!
too much fighting between sides to get much done, and just more and more problems coming about!

Bounties have never worked to eliminate unwanted species. In fact, some species like the coyote actually increase reproduction when they are pressured by hunters. All bounties do is take money from game and fish agencies and put in the pocket hunters, many of which would not even bother to hunt the species the bounties were paid on if not for the bounty.
