What does a hybrid striped bass eat ...

...that is hanging around a nursery pond canal? What ever it can get in its mouth. Almost every hybrid that we collected had largemouth bass fingerlings in its gun. They averaged around 50 fingerling in their stomachs. One hybrid had 172 in it. A couple were also eating crayfish that were coming out of the pipe. We will need to rethink our strategy of protecting the crop that we release. This was one of the best crops that we have raised and it is painful to see that all of that hard work go for almost nothing.

Another reason to remove the daily limit on those eating machines and get them out of the lake

Hate em. No place for them. They have ruined Storm Creek in East AR.

Great info.

This is why dynamite should be legal.

Wow!

It's not? Uh oh.

Well it is legal, but you can't have a lighter on you while in possession thereof! :)

Starting this winter we will be conducting some research on hybrids and walleye in the lake. Depending on the results, there may be some future changes on the way we manage these species.

D10 ... will your shocker thingy bring them up or is it limited to shallower conditions
