Those tugged a line
Maybe KDFWR should stock these pure Stripers in the lake and put a real tight limit on them. Looks like they can eat a carp or three!!
Sounds good to me, they're a fun to catch alsoQuote:

KDFWR did stock stripers into the lakes last year. (Hatchery had extra). Looks like those are from a much earlier stocking though. Hopefully they survive well and grow up. Some reservoir fish can get huge.
Can they help with the asian carp problem?

Even predators that are large enough to eat them may not choose to. It depends on whether there are easier, more energy efficient prey sources available. For instance, a really big blue cat could eat one, but they might instead choose to eat the more abundant and easier to catch zebra mussels (we've seen lots of reports of this from anglers cleaning cats).
The stripers were stocked to improve the striper fishery, and not to control the carp. Same with alligator gar. Both of them could help the carp problem marginally however...
