The cormorants have arrived

[bulletbob]

cormorants.. Nothing worse for a fishery.. I am not one to kill anything wantonly, I don't hunt, never did, but I'll tell ya' if they were around in the 60's the way they are today, the waterways would have been full of dead ones with .22 slugs or birdshot in them.. Of course if you tried that today, they'd shoot you to protect the damn birds. Those things are poison...
They load up on small flounder in salt water, and love fresh stocked trout in fresh... Cayuga Lake up here is infested with them, and since they proliferated the fishing is just not the same as it was.. They are not the only reason, but they certainly contribute in a big way.... Here;s a quick read that sheds some light on the problem.. bob
