Find out what the city is doing and why. It may be that they just don't want to pay for fish.
Money could be it, or they may not know..?
I say "they may not know" because the other lake they are currently dredging has had weed problems for years because they only dug it to 3-5ft across the entire lake. So hydrilla and other weeds invaded the ENTIRE LAKE so the City spends over $10k per year on grass carp.
Well they finally threw in the towel and dredged the lake, so hopefully they dug it deep enough so that weeds do not invade.
Now the new lakes problem could be they have no clue.. I sent an email to our Mayor about potentially contacting Greg Grimes to take a look at the lakes but she gave me the political run-around.
I'm contemplating about setting up small grow-out containers for some vigorous baitfish and releasing them in the golf course ponds that are the most landlocked so the baitfish may be able to reproduce & establish numbers before moving onto the lake. This may be an optimistic thought but I would really like to see this area live up to it's reputation as a quality fishery, since it's where my love for bass fishing started.
