It would be pretty cool to catch a 5-10 lb Coho out of a pond on a light rig. Certainly not a King (Chinook), but these little bullets are fast, and they run! Much more than a RBT, Brook or Brown will ever think of. Could be fun for the right pond!
True but grass carp would be just as good if not better. But come to think of it though, your MDNR prohibits even triploid grass carp. I love the irony of them saying they are not effective on vegetation while at the same time they are not allowed because they could devastate vegetation in natural waters if they got into them.
