Ya, there are stories from all over BC like that. Anglers on the Island hate them because they've ruined some great trout fisheries too. I'd rate the smallmouth fishing on the Island as good as anywhere in North America yet the belief amoung most locals is that they are a trash fish. There is definitely no love affair there.
