The problem I'm guessing with the WDFW is similar to the problem I run into in the state agency I work in.

There is some brilliant up and coming folks who are quickly snuffed out by the cling on relationship owed legacy employees who run the agency.

Public scrutiny is the best cure it causes what state agencies hate, change and being held accountable. There were many employees who retired from the WDFW gifting resources to commercial industries leaving the mess of a department we have now.
