"With slowed growth rates in smaller pike because their primary food source is only available during the summer, fewer pike are going to reach sizes where they can utilize carp year round, and eventually the pike that are already big will be gone and you will have nothing to replace them!"
I am not advocating for keeping or releasing the larger pike; however, I would like an explanation of how removing the larger pike provides any more smaller carp for the smaller pike to utilize? Are you saying that the larger pike are eating small carp that could have been utilized by the smaller carp?
