[#0000FF]I posted a writeup I did after joining the carp seiners on ice back in 2010...on another thread. It was suggested that others might like to see it and get a better idea of how it is done...and the results.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]There is a PDF file on my old report. But if you would like to watch a video about the whole carp seining operation there is one on Utube.[/#0000FF]

Hi Pat, Interesting video. They figured it would take 6 years to remove the needed amount of carp, the video is from 2009, do you know where they are as far as reaching their goal?

As a guy that loves running snow machines on ice, that big hole gives me the creeps no matter how well it is marked.

[#0000FF]Sorry, but I have not heard any numbers recently. I will make some inquiries.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]As a longtime regular angler on Utah Lake, my evaluation is that they HAVE made a difference. There are still far too many carp in the lake but the numbers have been reduced...and average sizes have increased a bit.
