[quote castnshoot]Minersville, lives on the edge of death year in and year out.
It has been a good long run this time, maybe the best run ever.
The reserve pool is not enough to save the trout for very long in late summer. That being said, Minersville trout have scraped by some close calls in the past.
They are predicting a real weak monsoonal season this year so the farmers will need their water sooner which might well be the nail in the coffin for Minersville trout this year.
If DWR decides to open it to bait fish Minersville I would back their decision. They have done a good job IMO the last several years.
I think they have a pretty good handle on weather or not it is going to go belly up.
If you waste a whole lake of fish you are just giving ammunition to those who want to return Minersville to a put and take fishery.
We will just have to rebuild,, which don’t take long with a little weather luck, which we are over do for.[/quote]
