I have a dumb question... walleye have similar foraging habits to northern pike and have a definite preference for soft-rayed prey species, suckers included. Is there no concern for the walleye population?
As far as northern pike are concerned... bad news for those trying to control them. In their northern waters back east, natural lakes that are; shallow, weedy, and soft-bottomed with gradually sloping shorelines all add up to the perfect conditions needed for supporting a healthy pike population.
The bucket biologists couldn't have picked a better place than Utah Lake IMO.
