[#0000FF]Happens just about every year. And it ain't just non trout species they are eating. They have been observed with two groups working toward each other, herding the spawning cutts ahead of them and totally wiping out everything in between. But pelicans are protected ya know so we gotta let 'em be all that they can be.
Same thing happens at Blackfoot Reservoir in Idaho. And I am sure it happens other places as well. I know I have seen a sea of white pelicans massing around the mouth of the Truckee River where it dumps into Pyramid Lake in Nevada. Again, some folks say they are just there for the spawning tui chubs and suckers. But it is amazing how the timing corresponds with the upstream cutt run.
