YP YOY will be hammered hard, and remember their fusiform body shape lends them to high predation rates even at age 1 and beyond. Managing excessive populations of YP, which I doubt you'll experience, is easy through angling and traps. I doubt 1% of all YP offspring make it through year 1 in presence of predator base of YP and SMB provided the BOW doesn't consist of extremely dense vegetation cover. Let the fishery tell you which direction to take - it will become readily apparent this season and those following what corrective management strategies you need to employ, if any.

Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after. ~ Henry David Thoreau
