[#0000FF]You know where you can put your pot-stirring spoon.
Loah also posted of his "pike-ette" on BFT. I know of a couple of folks who ran down to see if they could score a couple. Easy to see them in the thin clear water but hard to catch them without spooking them.
I also know that DWR showed up with some nets, to try to capture a few. Didn't hear how that turned out.
Since the June suckers have started using the improved habitat on the lower end of Hobble Creek I am guessing that the word is out among all the sucker-munching predators. There has been June sucker spawning observed in the area but I'm betting that there aren't many newly hatched Junies that make it out as far as the open lake.
DWR captures adult spawning June suckers in the Provo River, spawns them and rears the young to several inches before releasing them into the lower river or out into the lake. For the next few days almost every walleye caught within swimming distance has a belly distended with several baby Junies. Pretty high attrition rate. Maybe we should have a walleye eradication program. NOT.
