Hey guys,
I found this nice site where a fellow posts reports/stories of his travels seeking trout on the fly in our area. So in reading his most recent report he mentions that a dead pike was found at Cold Springs... The ranger told him it might have been a prank. Let’s hope it was a prank.
Its up to us to keep vigilant and make sure that no bucket biologists ruin this awesome trout and bass fishery. Not sure what we can do except keep an eye out when we are up there, you know for anyone with buckets of pike , and make sure we educate folks on how these pike would destroy the fishery. And of course report to NDOW should we catch one. (In rumrunners case, if he finds a dead one). Check out the report and the details of his talk with the ranger at [url "http://www.fisherdad.com/2008/10/cold-springs-haymeadow-reservoirs-wayne.html"]http://www.fisherdad.com/...eservoirs-wayne.html[/url] It’s a pretty neat site all around, well written and nice photos.
