The Aquatic Habitat Stamp became required for most anglers in 1997, and with that revenue, the heavy lifting of the program began. Anglers have since purchased more than 1.9 million stamps, and the $9.5 million generated has been leveraged against more than 70 other funding sources, most notably the Sport Fish Restoration Fund, Nebraska Environmental Trust, and Environmental Protection Agency program funds, providing more than $26 million for work to date.
$9.5 million compared to $5000 sounds like nobody but you guys should be able to touch a muskie.
Like I said I would never shoot a muskie, but because a kid shot one there is a sudden up roar. Let it go. Maybe if there was a bunch of guy trying to shoot muskies, then that would be something to get p1$$ed about. I don't know anyone that goes out looking to shoot a muskie. Are they that easy to see? I'm not going to comment on this topic anymore.
Good Luck with your fight.
