Plenty of hot coffee has got my mind going this morning.

Anyone hear of stocking grass pickerel or spotted bass? These fish are among the most vicious little fighters I have ever hooked, and deserve consideration. I assume the spotted bass would breed and feed just like LMB. I don't guess grass pickrel would over populate. At least, I have never seen it happen in the wild. I would think they would be excellent for helping control small BG and crappie overpopulation without creating a monster.

Instead of grass carp for weed control, how about pacu? I'm sure they would die off in the fall, but they're cheap to buy.

Thoughts?
