M-ville over the weekend

[castnshoot]

A one year old Wiper is 12 to 14 inches,, one of the fastest growing fresh water fish in their first year.

At the end of year 2 they will be 18 to 21 inches.

They are a really big beneficiary of what is knows as Hybrid Vigor. That is what makes them such a great tool at Minersville.

Not much in Minersville for them to boil on. Crawdads for the most part for the Wipers,, they do gorge on trout eggs in the spring, and of course a nice desert of Brown or Cutthroat fingerlings from time to time.

With the current management program there is no need to worry about chubs in Minersville.

I see Minersville from my front porch quite often, also fish it quite often, not to mention first hand reports from a regular line up of fly fishermen from all over the country who hang out at my house when I am not there.

Praying that this is the view looking back at the house from out on the lake come this June.
