Quote:Everyone thinks that the chubs in the Gorge were decimated by the Browns and Lakers, not so, they did their share, but the SMB did most of the damage, likewise on the Crayfish up there.
I'll have to disagree on that one. There are still quite a few chubs on the Wyoming side of Flaming Gorge. It's also where the shallow bays that the Lake trout shun are. The Smallmouth in Starvation didn't do the chubs in there either.
And just because there are Smallmouth bass in Strawberry doesn't mean that they are reproducing. Spawning? Yes. But I haven't seen any proof that there is any recruitment of the young.
