Re: Lakers mortality

Paul I have to say I think you are rite on the mark !!! It is just not substainable to catch 20 or thirty fish and release them and not kill 40 percent or more And still have a good fishery!!! Good luck trying to educate people to this !!! Sleeps

Re: Don't Drink The Kool Aid

Todd I think you are right on the mark!! I Also think that one of the big factors in the catch rates being a little off is the amount of bait that is in the lake compared to before the onset of alwives etc!!! I fully believe the fish are there !! Just my 2 cents!! Sleeps
