The problem however, is that if you start giving people money to pay off there debts you are just throwing wood on the fire. Sure people will pay off there debts, but then what? The banks are not lending money because of the credit problems, so small companies that employ millions of people are goin...

Your post clearly speaks about BALANCE, and that is my exact point. Right now there is an observed imbalance in the lakes in this area, with far too many sunfish for the carrying capacity of the water. For example, most of the lake trout (top predator) caught in Loughborough last winter had large h...

Ever wonderd about live-release fish mortality in the winter

I have always wondered, fish mortality in the winter must be higher than in the summer. We all know that stress is the number one fish killer, and being draged out of the water into a freezing cold environment, with the sun glaring off the snow must be very stressful.

I agree with a 50 fish limit. Panfish serve the purpose of keeping predator populations in line with prey, as well as being an important food source to larger predators. As much as we enjoy catching those lunkers, a body of water that has lots of lunkers and no small fish is a very unhealthy body of...
