Utah lake carp project
#7
I call BS with saying that by catch kills of white bass and other game fish are insignificant. Any game fish killed is a fish we don't have the chance to fish for. You have to look at the whole picture. They are not netting one or two loads of carp. They are netting carp EVERY day. Therefore white bass and other game fish are also being killed at huge rates EVERY day. That massive a netting operation to eradicate the ENTIRE lake of carp inevitably will kill a HUGE amount of gamefish in the by catch daily. If this were to happen one day, or a week, it won't amount to much, but it is happening every day. The impact is extremely significant………..but of course it's going to be rhetorically downplayed. Anything for the precious sucker. I will continue to support the carp netting project by releasing every carp I catch. Hopefully it will spawn a million babies so they keep busy or else they will find other things to kill…….like eliminating non native gamefish in the lake entirely.
