I thought that might be the case.. but wasnt' sure.. Thanks for the clarification. Those fish look like they could almost challenge our current records for LMB's.

One thing that we need to remember with the damage done to Utah Lake.. Granted the pollution was human caused, and un-necessary. But the lake served a great purpose with the early settlers to this valley. It literally saved them from starvation. They had run out of food.. then when harvest time came....The crickets showed up for an "Early Harvest" The settlers knew of the fish in the lake and literally sustained the populous largely with fish from the lake..
and for everyones information... They said the June sucker taste great!
Yes, they over-harvested.. But it served a purpose..
It is a great effort to get the lake to a more pristine condition. I for one feel that we owe it to the lake. It's long past time to pay back to UL what she did for this state.
