Shark river used to be a great breeding ground for flounder .
It’s not the cormorant’s that ruined that fishery there .
It’s the millions of pounds of dust piped in there from every parking lots through the sewer systems .
95% of the river is full of that silt and it gets worse every year .
If they were to actually dredge the back 75% of the river one time so it could self cleanse itself , there would be another 100 years worth of fishing there
