Scofield was last poisoned in the 80s. It took over 20 years for chubs to show up. I'm of the opinion that there were no chubs in the system until someone who thinks that you need little fish as food to grow big fish put them back in. Poison it. Get it back in fishable condition and put Tigers and Cutts back in. Then if chubs are still in the system, or if some bone head puts them back in, the Tigers and Cutts can keep them in check. Without waiting 20 years to get rid of the adult (chubzilla) chubs. And if you have a fishery based on chub fry to sustain a bunch of Cutts and Tigers what happens in 20 years when the chubs do die off? Do you plant chubs? So they can spawn and provide fry?
It was time to poison it in 2009. They found limited numbers of chubs back as far as 2005 I believe. That's 11 years!
You yourself have said you want to go there for a bait run. Whoopie. The fishery that has been the second most popular fishery in the state has been reduced to a bait pond.
