[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]I couldn't agree with you more, Dennis. You have expressed some very good points.[/size][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]You're also exactly right about Bear Lake being an [font "Verdana"][size 1][font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]oligotrophic lake and how low levels of nutrients in the lake are a direct influence upon the growth rates of it fish( or biomass). I probably should of mentioned that but I didn't want to complicate things even more. That's a big reason you'll never see fish as large as the lakers in Flaming Gorge. Unlike Flaming Gorge which has a lot of sources for incoming nutrients, Bear Lake has actually none! I am no expert about this but RipNlips and I have talked about it quite a bit. RipNlips has a degree in biology and understands it very well and has explained it at a layman's level so even this nimrod understood it.[/size][/font][/size][/font][/size][/font]
