Pat, that would most definitely pose an issue if you're not pulling any LMB. I would venture a guess and say every size of LMB present is cleaning house on everything else.
I still feel a WR on a good sample size of all species present would show something..
I would agree on pulling some LMB but I would be careful not to unload and shock the system. 12-15 per acre would be a good start I would think.
So remove some LMB to give more forage for BCP.... so what size LMB should I take out? Seem to have an abundance of 10” . But I’m fishing for BCP with small jigs so maybe targeting that size.... or all sizes
