I'm no expert but its just mind-bottling on how they are "devastating" to ERIES fishery. They go into the deepest part of the lake for roughly 7 to 8 months a year and only the cold season. If anything they help with the clean up with the shad die-off. Tried today...and thats just it tried

Read the article. It has nothing to do with lake Erie.

I know I agree it can be an issue for other areas where they can effect the general fish population. Whats really going to suck is when some idiot introduces asian carp into lake erie like the people that put snakeheads in florida

As far as fishwisper needing help to bag burbotz He's probably forgot more about fishing for them,than I know. The guy knows his burbot fishing truly.
