My license fees already partly go to pay for all the stockers that TWRA puts in there. The water gets so warm during the summer that a lot of those fish that were not removed for the skillet will die. I would not want an additional fee added to fish on a river with so little public access. The property owners own the riverbed don't they? I participated in a Townsend LR river cleanup there a couple of years ago and several property owners would not let you cross their property in town even to pick up trash along the riverbank.
