Not elitist at all, Deb. The $85 is for the whole year. Trout season is year-round. I'll pay 1/2 that or more for a round of golf, (including cart), on most of our better courses. Folks in TX pay $20-30 for a one day Dove lease and hundreds, even thousands for a good deer lease. Our TU chapter has a system that enables us to keep track of the lease payments. We hold several "lease orientation" sessions, which a lease purchaser must attend before fishing one of our leases. After the orientation session, they are given a Lease Pass, (certification), and map showing where the leases are located. There are no salmon rivers in Texas.

How do you keep track of who pays their dues when you "lease"  a river?
That sounds a little "elitist" to me.  Do they still lease salmon rivers
also?  That is one thing that kind of turns me off to trout unlimited.
