[#0000FF]I have an inquiry in to Chris Penne...regarding the 2018 report. Hopefully we can get it if it is done.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]Chris was bumped up a notch in the hierarchy and there is a new biologist in charge of Willard. His name is Cody Edwards. Chris is still his senior but is less involved in the day-to-day aspects. When Cody came in he inherited a pretty large workload, in addition to a complete learning program on the waters to which he was assigned. Hopefully he has had time to catch up and complete the report.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]I am particularly interested in hearing what the DWR evaluation of the wiper/shad ratio is this year. True, they just planted a lot of newbie wipers and they probably have not grown large enough to have a significant impact on the shad yet. But most of us who watch the progress of the shad balls on sonar can attest that they seemed to be smaller and fewer this year...in most parts of the lake.

[#0000FF]Hope we don't end up with another imbalance that results in poor growth and survival of the predators. But the upside of that is hungry fish are more catchable by silly fishermen.
