It seems like this ol GEEZER is startin to let his memory slip so maybe i can set his story straight. The pike in Comins lake in the 70's didnt starve to death. In fact they did awesome! The native chum in the lake provided an ample supply of food, creating state record setting pike. Comins lake in the 70's was world famous as being the greatest pike fishery in the western united states and people came from all around the world catching 5 foot monsters. The lake would have stayed this way but the owner of the lake, a local rancher, was forced to sell out to the Nevada fish and game. And like everything else NDOW touches it went straight to s***. Some imported piss brained biologist decided it would be better to make Comins a trout fishery so ol GEEZERS can sit on their fat ass all day and watch a bobber. So they poisened the pike, poisened not starved. Im not sayin they should let pike in Sunnyside thats a completely different study. But Pike would do awesome in Comins as they have before, and would provide some diversity to state that has already been ran over by non-native rainbow trout. So before you believe the B.S. story from NDOW about the invasive pike taking over maybe you should go out on an early June morning and drag a 5 inch spoon behind your boat, and the first time a 3 foot pike hits your line Im bettin youll change your mind.
