That lake had some big bass in it and it has just small ones now for the most part...Is that good???

If you remember more years past, bass were introduced to EC via bucket biologists so perhaps the DWR has not been that concerned whether or not the bass have sustained at a larger size in there. Just sayin.
Like the perch in Mantua, more "brilliant" bucket biology, I doubt the DWR would loose sleep at night if they were "over" harvested. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE PERCH!! but do not think they should be in Mantua because some [#0000ff]deleted[/#0000ff] thinks he knows better than the real biologists and interupts(possibly to the demise)the plan and invested $$$$ of a blue ribbon fishery for trout and bass. Has it crashed? No. But we know there is only so much forage for each species of fish and perch are prolific and I'm possitive they are competing heavily with the other baitfish(ie. bluegill/sunfish). Might be the same with East Canyon.
