Sucks to see my home away from home as a kid is already into the 'mismanaged' phase this early in the game. I expected it to take a decade or so. Then again, even during the planning, it seems DFG was always the only agency never present at meetings, and even when they were, the line of questioning would go something like:
ME: So, are the warmwater species like the bass and bluegill that were relocated also be reintroduced? Perhaps some forage for the bass and bluegill? Will the non-natural lake bottom be conducive to successful spawning of these two species, and possibly others?
THEM: Yeah, we're stocking catfish in the summer and trout in the winter. Any more questions?
ME:
(RECREATION OF MY RESPONSE)
So now, we'll have a bass population that will eventually get rid of the mosquito fish that were placed there to prevent, well mosquitoes. (Maybe that'll drive the hipsters away, who knows, maybe a blessing in disguise?) Of course, because every type of social issue now becomes blown out of proportion, the first hipster to get malaria will blame the fisherman for illegally introducing fish, so another black eye for the sportsman. And, after the bass finish their mosquito fish buffet, they'll start cannibalistic predation.
Then some bucket biologist will stock 2 carp and some tilapia thinking 'that'll solve the issue because I took Bio 101 at the local JC!' mixed in with, of course, no Catch and Release encouragement at the now "Put and Take" lake, the bass that do end up being catcheable size will end up on people's stringers along with catfish and trout, and then soon it'll become Balboa Lake South.
They may have revitalized the area, but they sure didn't manage the fishery whatsoever.
