[quote Tarponjim]Seems like a large number of fish species for such a small little pond, but what could I possibly know? [/quote]
That was my thought as well. It seems like they are trying to keep everybody happy. I have to wonder if any one species can excel in such a biological hodgepodge.
One other quote caught my eye from the second link posted here.
"Biologists with the Upper Colorado River Endangered Species Recovery Program, which includes the UDWR and other agencies with jurisdiction on the Green and Colorado rivers, have determined a rotenone treatment is necessary to protect endangered fish in the Green River."
It would seem that the DWR and other agencies are serious about protecting endangered species by rotenone, or any means necessary, from bucket biology threats.
.
Food for thought for all you guys cheering on the bucket biologists putting pike in Utah lake and bragging that you would disobey the law and not keep them if you caught one.
