Jordanelle yesterday

[MrShane]

I love finder screens that are lit up like that.  Sounds like a great day, and I’ll agree, the weather was awesome yesterday.  Were you using standard koke gear for the bows?  That fish looks nice and healthy.

Thanks MW.
For the upper class bows I speed trolled Rapalas at 3.2mph, I was not targeting Bows though, I was looking for them dang Wipers.

No secrets here, yes, coves of the Rockcliff arm but really they are almost everywhere.
I want everyone to kill limits so they don’t stunt.

With no crawdad population in Jordy, big perch eat mostly little perch.  And the more big perch there are...and the better the spawning conditions...the more little perch for the big perch.  No worries about stunting.

If you are harkening back to Yuba...the problem there was no spawning cover and low water during spawns.  So the few baby perch that did get spawned got munched and the bigguns had no groceries.  But it all the ponds with good spawning conditions, the more the merrier.

I agree mostly with you Pat.
But, I would rather see an increased harvest in fall on adults just in case we have a drought winter and Jordy gets drawn down in late spring and the spawn is a bust.
Don’t wanna see Jordanelle have too few of Perch like Yuba Or too many Perch like Fishlake that has perfect spawning conditions every year.
It is definitely a tricky balancing act our beloved Perch go through every year in Utah.
