O[)0719 SUMMARY OF WATERS MANAGED FOR ANGLING RECREATION A. INTENSIVE MANAGEMENT WATERS - Intensive management waters are managed to provide the highest possible level of fishing recreation within the limits of the facilities and physical environment to support such use at the least cost. The primary management objective is to provide fish for anglers to catch and keep through stocking rates that ensure full use of available facilities and maximize return to the creel. Waters are managed under this concept when the angling demand cannot be met by other management options due to low qr'ductivity or an intensity of angler use that precludes the use of other management techniques.
