I wouldn't pretend to have any real insight into a far away local situation, whether here in the States or in another country. Just pointing out that people who make their careers and livelihood in things like fisheries biology are generally good people, with good information and ideas, trying to do the right thing, at least the ones I've met in the U.S. National Park Service, the U.S. Forest Service, the U.S. BLM, and various state agencies involved with fish, wildlife, and parks.
I do find it interesting that browns are considered bad for business down your way. I can't recall N.Z. being touted for rainbow fishing - most everything that I have noticed or that has stuck with me has been about the big browns down there.

The fish are always right.
