[quote Bigyfan]...do we know for sure the baby bass are being killed off 100% by the winter? if it is any number less than 100% that will establish a population eventually.[/quote]
No, I doubt that 100% (if there are spawning adults) would die. I would imagine that just going by percentages, a few may make it through that first winter.
Again, no -- just because some might make it does not mean that a population will eventually establish. Unless you count a hundred fish or so as an established population.
Plain and simple, Strawberry doesn't provide conditions suitable for a sustainable smallmouth population.
