Now, I may not be a Fish and Game guy, but I do know that I've only ever heard about fishing for stripers in Saltwater environments. Is it true that people can actually transport an ocean fish into a freshwater environment without killing them? And how exactly would that work?
More importantly, why would someone do that? Aren't there enough to go around now? Back when I was much younger, we heard talking about how the fish were getting smaller, and today, the complaints are exactly the same. I wonder if it isn't the fish getting smaller, but the fish tales aren't as captivating as they once were. Anyone remember the "Old Jack" stories about the big Largemouth inhabitant of the Witches? Not too many people my age left around these parts, but some people may remember the stories of Jack eating lures right off the line, or even the time he swam up next to a boat and the folks inside thought he was a shark?
If you don't remember it, ask your parents or grandparents if they remember. Those are some stories that will keep people thinking about the gifts we have swimming in the Lake, without bringing any new ones in... besides, the fish from the ocean probably won't mix well with the country fish...from what I heard, the ocean fish will move in fast on the weekends, jam up all the rivers, swim too fast, cut other fish off, and litter too much, then complain about how expensive the Lakes Region is nowadays!
