Idiotic waste of money. For years TWRA whines about money, and especially when it comes to trout stockings. Then waste money on a novel species that may or may not thrive. They tried this with brook trout and it failed, so why not do it again.

In addition, any one who has caught cuttthroats knows they fight like a sock filled with mud compared to rainbows and browns

I can't disagree. I was especially against putting brookies (northern strain at that) into the tailwaters. Everybody and their brother bragging about and applying for TARP certificates when the freakin fish were over the minimum length when they were chunked out of the back of the truck. Most "anglers" don't even have the ambition to go where REAL brookies live, let alone catch a trophy sized one.
