Merganser Eating Fish at Budd Lake What Species?

[buzzbaiter]

They are better fisherman than most of us and thus we should hate them. A few years back I scared a flock on a small trout stream. I guess one got so scared(I'm really not THAT ugly looking. lol) and regurgitated its last meal(s). Below is a pic which includes two white suckers and wild brown trout. The one sucker was ~8" and the brown trout ~4". Just goes to show you a) how many fish they can eat and b) how large. One flock can put a serious dent in a streams fish population if they hang out for a week or so. If you ever see them, throw rocks at them or sticks or use dynamite for all I care, just get rid of them. And yes I have seen them on the Passaic(more so the Delaware and its tribs). Who knows how many small pike they must be eating. Those 2-5" fingerlings the state stocks are a happy meal for them.
