Ok, but putting fishing or hunting spots on TV only does one thing. It draws a lot of additional people to that area. Burbot are slow growing and susceptible to over fishing. It takes them 3-6 years to reach 22-23 inches. After this point its really slow growing. Some of the bigger fish are 15+.
While YOU may almost never keep fish, the vast majority of people going after burbot do in fact keep them. This isnt a large lake and Burbot arnt every where. Pretty easy to overfish them.
