    How do you feel about more commercial gill nets in Tennessee lakes and rivers?

    TWRA is soliciting feedback on a study (paid for by you) to expand commercial fishing (using gill nets).

    I oppose it. I recommend that you do as well.

    Please see the link and send TWRA a message.

    I still own property there and I have to buy an expensive non resident license. E-mail sent. Thanks for the heads up.

    How much revenue would be gained by commercially harvesting roe? Doesn't seem like much ROI for 740k, besides the impact on other fish.
