Jordanelle (Report)

[Xman]

Hey tome,

Thanks for the info on jordanelle. though i may have been premature wit the perch comment. i will disagree at least from a angerls point of the rainbows. when the lake hit its high water mark the first year it had decent trout in it. two years later we caught countless 4 and 5 lbs rainbows out of that lake. then one year it collapsed. so perhaps it could have been just one cycle of good rainbows and cant keep a consistant populatoin of large trout but they did exist at one time. i think the biggest question is how many smallies to perch are there now? the reason i suspected a future problem from the perch is their notorious act of overpopulating. i would say that because of chubs and perch that is why the small mouth are so productive and large at this time. here is a question for a expert what is more likelly to be a forage fish for the smallmouth chubs or perch? anyone know? interesting topic regardless of the answeres i have enjoyed catching some of those smallies and hope it lasts .
