[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I, along with others, will be up there this week helping the DWR with their gillnet survey. I think research is needed to manage the lake properly and personally knowing the fisheries biologist, he takes his job very seriously.[/size][/black][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]You want to talk carnage? Go out to the dikes of the state park marina some night or early morning during the mack spawn and see the snagged macks coming out of there. Almost every fish taken off those dikes is snagged and kept but then again, how many snaggers are catch and release type of individuals? Some of the fish will strike but not very often.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Flaming Gorge, at least, shuts down the spawning beds from dusk till dawn. At Bear Lake, the lakers are allowed to be harvested when they are most vulnerable and most of the time, through illegal means. You've heard it before "Use big spoons off the state park marina dikes during the mack spawn for best results".[/size][/black][/font]
