    Very very interesting.....I remember reading the research papers of this study. Your class done a great job. I had no idea you were part of the study but they say you learn something new everyday.

    Default The hole

    Had dinner with Dylan Williams, guy who does a lot of tagging and biology work on Enid and Sardis. I asked what he thought of the new regs. He said the regs are the best thing to happen and hopes the rest of lakes follow suit. They are over pressured, the fish can't keep up. We lose 20% of fish out of spillway, 15% to predation and natural death, and 45% to fishing. Just something to think about

    Yep! I was fishing Butla spillway 2 yrs ago when the stripes was runnin and while I was there a crappie a little over 2 lbs floated up right where I was standing and it was still alive.Ain't nobody in their right mind gonna put back a crappie that size and in the state it was in< I would say it had not swam up the river, It was barely flopping but gills were still working. I would say it came through the hole and got banged up!I was fishing a eddy just where it starts to get wider and the current was going back toward the dam.Just my opinion, no scientific fact though!
