Well if you guys want to pass something on to Dan Brauch, who is the fishery biologist in the Gunnison region his e-mail is [url "mailto:dan.brauch@state.co"]dan.brauch@state.co[/url]. I'm sure he'll be happy to hear any suggestions about this subject.
But don't start barking at him like they're just sitting back watching this happen. I can assure you Dan and his crew have put the most time and effort into Blue Mesa's Lake trout and kokanee population and the last thing they want is a fish that could potentially destroy what they created.
The bottom line is that they are in a situation where they can't do much about this matter. Why they don't shock and transport them is unknown to me right now but this is not going to solve the problem and there's no way their going to plant another preditory fish unless its maybe a hybrid like a tiger muskey.
