[quote TubeDude][#0000ff]But, in lakes that do not have adequate spawning streams or areas, planting sterile hybrids makes more sense.[/#0000ff][/quote]
[cool] Pat, not trying to be difficult, but I am missing the logic to your statement. Wouldn't it make more sense to plant sterile hybrids in places where there is adequate spawning streams or areas so that they don't reproduce and overrun a body of water, or cross with another desirable species? If there aren't adequate spawning areas then a sterile fish wouldn't reproduce.
