Time to take stock in salmon

DETROIT (MCT) — Lake Michigan salmon stocking will be cut by a whopping 50 percent lake-wide next year in an effort to avert the food chain collapse that has nearly wiped out chinook salmon fishing in most of Lake Huron.

Michigan waters will get the biggest reduction in stocked fish, about 67 percent, yet anglers here might not see a significant reduction in their catches.

I will support it if it helps to lower my property taxes
I oppose it because I don't believe it will impact property taxes and I will just pay twice
I'm against any additional taxes
I have not heard enough yet to form an opinion
