[#0000FF][cool]I did not mean to imply that I thought the "system" had broken down. I am keenly aware of all the surveys and work that goes into the management of Willard and other waters.
My primary reaction was because of my remembery of the old times...with all of the snagging. If the Division has taken that into consideration and has control measures in place than it will probably reduce it some. But we both know it will not stop it. There was snagging going on at night last year...even with the closure in place.
If anything, there is surplus of walleyes in Willard Bay right now. But the dwindling wiper population needs all the help they can get in keeping the shad numbers down. Always a big balancing act.
