I'm on it. Maybe you WB regulars could catch a few thousand small muskies to fill my tanker for the return trip. Pickett has a severe underpopulation of predators. Maybe the small freckle gang up on them like piranhas & the hunters become the hunted.

No shortage of predators at WB. Lots and lots of gar, some pike, big stripers, big bass, and heck, even bowfin. Years ago I believe that someone even caught a monster musky in there as well.

water is gonna produce similar to dirt you get a bunch of corn or a few nice trees,,,,,,,my uncle will catch baby crappie and keep alive for his bass bait...any water without a good concentration of baitfish the panfish pop will eventually suffer.....believe it or not but the catch and release bass things going strong these days will cripple the crappie population and crappie will overpopulate a pond if they arent thinned as well.......
