The LMB fishery turned out to be a pretty good one but what happened to the others???? Let's all say it together, "F ing STRIPERS" got in there and wrecked havoc on everything but somehow the LMB fishery held up pretty well!! (that say's something about those green carp) Imagine how good the lake would be if those things didn't get in there!!!!!! Yea Yea I know it created another fishery, but what happened to the great Striper bite of 3-4 years ago???? I'm sure if people were given a choice "NOW" nobody would wish those Stripers got in there!!!! They sort of wrecked things and became sorta scarce themselves!!!! Is someone to blame for this???? I don't know if there was away to have kept them out. But if there was, "someone should have fallen on his sword over that one!!!"
