[quote Ryno] Just because the kokes are small isn't necessarily a reflection of the strain or genetics though. It could also be a result of really good recruitment (high densities), low mortality, poor zooplankton abundance resulting in decreased growth, water quality, all-the-above, etc.

I think you are correct Ryan, that is one of the reasons the limit is so high(12) there. Too many kokes, too little food. At one time the limit was 24 kokes in that lake. The thing is that the size of the kokes in porcupine have only been averaging 7 to 10" the last few years so a 12 or 13" koke is a whopper there[frown].
