Kayote and PBH,
Just a side note here. I have tried to use whole small perch as bait. It didn't work. I think that PBH is right, at Fish Lake I don't think the macks eat the perch or they would be huge. I think the perch are less desirable because of the spines in their fins are they are firm. I didn't try just a chuck of meat though.
We could probably create a hefty list of lakes that have been ruined to some degree by the introduction of fish that shouldn't have been there. I think that DWR has done a pretty good job of providing some diversity in the types of fishing opportunities we have. I wish people would stop putting fish where they don't belong. As was mentioned, I think going to an RAC meeting and voicing your ideas there is a far superior plan to stocking a water illegally for your own selfish interests.
