What is the downside of GSF? - 09/22/07 12:55 PM
It has almost become a mantra to eliminate Green Sunfish.
Why? What is the REAL downside? Just what damage do they really do?
Yeah, I know that they have a large mouth and compete with LMB. Just how bad is that? I also know that they seldom reach the ultimate size of of a BG or CNBG and thus take up water space. (D.I.E.D. would disagree here.) Yeah, they spawn earlier but seldom more than once and become early predators. Is that real bad?
OK, here we go. Hit me. The bell is ringing for Round one.
