flag A Maine lawsuit over fly-fishing-only rules highlights debate on balancing conservation, science-based regulations, and public input in managing vulnerable trout streams.

flag A lawsuit challenging Maine’s fly-fishing-only regulations has sparked renewed debate over fisheries management, with conservation groups urging public input over court decisions. flag They emphasize that the rules, based on science, protect slow-growing brook trout in nutrient-poor, climate-vulnerable streams by reducing mortality and supporting catch-and-release. flag These measures help sustain ecosystems, drinking water, wildlife, and rural economies. flag Advocates say open, adaptive management by experts and the public is better than litigation for balancing access with conservation.
