they ask how Many fish, measure the biggest, and thank you.
For every 50 boats 1 gets "surveyed"
not exactly what I would call accurate.

As far as askin guides .... Hmmmm.
That's pretty useless. It would take 1000 average fisherman to catch the same number of trout 1 guide catches in the same year.

I just don't see how they ever gonna come close to the true numbers. I know it's all an estimate... But it seems pointless.

We do need to keep track of trout harvest , but the current method ain't nearly accurate enough. IMHO.
