Guys! Come on! Don't make me beg! I am old and kneeling hurts my old knees!

Please somebody give me advice if even on this one question.

Any chance the SMB and YP can keep the BG and PS from over populating without other predator help to keep everything kind of balanced? I am also hoping the YP help contol the SMB spawn and the SMB help contol the YP spawn. I of course, will also be doing my part by harvesting the middle size BG and PS. Maybe add WE someday to help control either YP or smallie spawns if they get out of control?


My plan is to try to build and maintain a significant population of 9 to 12+ inch YP which is why I am hoping they will help control the SMB and SF.

I am also hoping Ewest does a followup article to his one on YP in the Sept/Oct issue of PMB to help me get those big perch.
