You may be right in your neck of the woods, but it seems he is from Northern Cal and the lake he is referring to is fed by the Delta (that is why he refers to stripers and sturgeon in the there). This would be an invasive species anywhere in California and a huge deal if they were in the Delta. A lake in Cali was rotenoned I think three times because they found pike in them and there was concern they might get into the delta. The pike kept coming back and they kept trying to treat the lake even though it was a trophy trout fishery.
