+1 for selective harvest on pike. let "most" of the big girls swim free..
I'm hearing the management strategy for Yuba is to eventually stock a sterile walleye, or saugeye? which, as I understand it is part of the reasoning to drastically reduce the number of Pike. not sure I agree with this strategy, as without reliable water levels sterile walleye will never have a reliable food source(perch), and most walleye aren't equipped to eat the 1+ yr old carp like a large pike can.
