Wish we could find out who put the bluebacks into the lake. Had 4 dead ones float by me while swimming yesterday.

DIY bucket biology can ruin a fisheries. (Yeah, I know about Lanier)

Hopefully it's not these "professional" guides that got busted on Smith Lake for introducing them:

Thanks, John. Sorry for waiting so long to reply. I guess if people want to look for  larger bass in open 

water (of say, a 3 mile diameter), I hope they enjoy it. With these things ranging in big water and the 

yellow perch being established as largemouth/spot forage averaging 20 feet deep, the topwater may be 

pretty tough.

Again, I hope they nail them.
