There is so much to say I am more obliged to suggest you look up all the previous posts on this subject.
but as Michelle things I am verbose...long story short.
Bad guys put perch in private trout lake
perch breed like crazed rabbits and take over lake cause nothing eats them fast enough.
perch stop growing after 5-6 inches
perch eat all trout food...trout very, very sad
only option...rotenone lake or intensively remove perch...can't put pike/walleye etc in lake...as it is illegal to transport live perch/pike.
Board votes to try netting.
hungry crazed perch bonkers from Alberta Outdoorsmen descend upon lake causing mass panic...perch is delicious and even small makes for great cheap tasty protein!!!!
<2 months later 30,000+ perch caught
~500,000 to 1,000,000 more to go..how many exactly...time will tell.
can't get em all but if we get enough the remaining perch will grow bigger
making for better angling for them thar perches
in a nutshell
Did I miss anything anybody??????
