Default Re: Pumpkinseed

I fish where he fishes sometimes. I've seen it personally. Non-natives, some w/o licenses, LOADING stringers with sunnies, crappies, golden shiners, white perch, yellow perch, etc. These guys roll 5 or 6 deep and keep just about everything.

Culling a bit is one thing. These guys keep it up and they'll decimate the fish population in the access area they're fishing. It's a substantially deep hole. I've seen it happen with Farrington Lake.

Predominantly eastern European immigrants filling 100 quart coolers with every single fish they catch. Bullheads, crappie, perch, bass, pickerel, etc. All in the cooler. Farrington is now a shell of its former self. Pretty sad...
