    Gar, pickerel, bass, and catfish (at least a couple of species but not all four) are needed to control the population of the panfish. Otherwise, all we would catch is 100s of 8"ers.

    It is up to the VDGIF to determine the correct bio-mass and control that bio-mass through stocking to keep a lake in good balance.
