No doubt KLG has a lot of birds.
But arent there so many birds
because it's filled to the brim?
There's a point where there's too much trout. Where it starts actually harming the fishery rather than make it better. Consequences of overpopulation; disease spreads easier, less food to go around, etc, and in this example a bigger presence of predators.
