If they compete with the chubs, they also compete with the planted fingerling trout. Until they EAT the chubs they aren't doing much good. And until the crawdads are gone, they won't eat chubs.
[quote TubeDude]An interesting thought is that if DWR had a source of semi mature smallies to dump into Scofield, with a C & R only...or a severe slot...they would almost be like planting sterile hybrids. If they cannot reproduce well, they will not create an imbalance.[/quote]
They already have a sterile hybrids, and that is the strategy for now. We DON'T need bucket biologists making the decisions.
