Trust me, I will get around to my views about Snakeheads soon, but all things need to be considered, and I think the outlook is grim.
this happened because the state severely overstocked the lake trout for year because they didn't think they were reproducing naturally...once they found out that they were (and very successfully at that) it was too late they had over saturated the system already. someone dropped the ball on that one, can't just take everything said to be fact. They were wrong about the lake trout reproducing and they and be wrong on a number of other things too...
