Add female Northern Pike after the Walleye have established some size and the BCP are plentiful. Northern Pike and Walleye coexist in natural lakes and will leave each other alone for the most part (as long as there is plentiful forage).

The NP are opportunistic predators. A large NP will whack at a school of BCP killing/eating several at a time. Other's will tell you that a NP prefers a large meal but we have cleaned numerous large NP and have yet to see a large predator in their stomachs. We have seen stomachs full of various small fish including BCP.

One female NP per acre is a good place to start. Fun, easy to catch and remove if you have second thoughts later.
