We also caught about 100 crappie. This seems to be working. If we can get enough guys together to hit this 3-4 times a year we may get these 'trash' fish controlled. 1 seining has already seemed to improve water quality.
BTW, NEfish, thanks for the pix. I love it. I had forgotten the mountain of fish we hauled out of there. I am trying to get some guys together for a seining party Monday night so I will try to get some more pix. If you can make it, come on down.
PS Guys, this truly seems to be helping the gamefish population and water clarity. Last weekend we caught the first LMB that has been caught out of there with rod-n-reel in years.(10+yrs) And the water quality seems to have improved substantially compared to July of most years. It seems as though the water improves in the winter when there is less trash fish activity, but as soon as the carp start becoming active it turns to chocolate milk.
