I appreciate your point of view but I disagree with you.
Kwin is a Fisheries Biologist and he tells us that in SoCal Lakes the striper population needs to be controlled.
Have you looked into the breeding dynamics of striper? They lay something like 30,000 to 50,000 eggs each. We have to choose between to many striper and way too many striper.
If you have trouble catching numbers of striper we'll help you. I decided years ago to help anyone who will listen learn to catch them to help control the population. There are lots of them, big and small but to catch them you have to know something about them, most of the time having 90% of the recipe for catching will catch nothing in our SoCal lakes.
Those fish are actually larger than most of the trout that people catch and keep. They eat just fine.
We'll teach you to catch fish too, but in your case it may be more difficult.
Oh! Thanks guys, for the support.
