Okay If we remove big fish we will get big fish ???

If we have big fish to be again with, not sure what you are saying??

And not sure how that helps a lake with small fish??[/quote]

Cliff, I'm not sure you have much experience growing things, but what happens when your tomato plant is crowded with other plants and weeds? They compete for sunlight, nutrients, and water. The product should be pretty obvious. Small plants and small, if any, fruit.

Now put that scenario in Jordanelle's bass. Everything a young bass needs to grow up fast is being competed for with each other and perch. So yes harvesting fish, even a few old ones past their prime, produce more big fish.

I put full trust into what the DWR is doing because it ain't easy managing fish and dealing with politics (whether or not those politics are substantiated with fact or fiction).

I'm curious to see whether or not kokes will provide some forage for smb and bring up their size.
