If you have a watershed with any BOWs or live creeks, even seasonal, upstream I think you might be walking uphill with efforts to treat the BH and GSF population. I think you're on target with aggressive trapping [fyke net and cages] and angling management techniques coupled with at least some single sex LMB to help cull the BH and GSF populations. I think your YP can coexist with those species just fine - so don't give up on them!
