Kelly, I've been thinking that reducing predation on BG during the tilapia "season" would cause/allow them to expand their numbers sufficient to feed predators over the winter. It kinda begs the question about "season" two. Kicking smoking was a real character builder and I wonder about kicking the tilapia habit.
I also worry about biomass problems in an area of scant rainfall. If these guys spawn like they are reputed to, can they foul their nest?
