Re: Cormorants
Speaking of animal control...I think cougars should be re-introduced to cull the deer herds. Damn things are everywhere. Oh wait cougars sneak up on you, attack from behind and grab your neck. Check that. Lets have year round hunting. Good idea!

You made the comment that my claims are baseless? I have posted the link to the Ohio study to show what these birds can and will do if their numbers continue to increase. Baseless? Really? The other comment "Show me the cormorants out-competing all of the local fish-eating birds. Oh, wait. You cannot" Well I can actually, that Ohio study you claim you are so "aware of" also shows how can Cormorants have displaced species of birds such as black-crowned night-herons, egrets, great blue herons,gulls etc. It's all in that study. So ATH1089 we don't need to do a NJ study. I thinking asking the people of this great state to buck up hundreds of thousands of tax dollars (probably more like well over a million) to do a study on something that has already been done is just crazy and irresponsible. However, I guess you rather wait until thousands of Cormorants at our lakes like the lakes in SC. (As posted by NJ219bands) They killed over 11,000 birds! Why that many? It's because like Ohio they didn't control the populations of these birds until it was too late. We don't need a study we just need to be proactive. You may think you know what you are talking about be you clearly don't. I get it though you're a young college student who thinks he has all the answers. (I probably was the same way) Most of us on here having been fishing long before you were even born. So I think you should really listen to what many have posted on here about how they are increasing in numbers and becoming a real problem. If you want to prove we are all wrong and that they have always been here and it's just angler problem. Please post any link(s) that shows your point of they have always been in NJ. Otherwise, hit the books and maybe do a paper on it. |

Re: Cormorants
Funny you should mention that. I have lived in NJ almost all of my life (spent a little over a year out of state), and I have only ever seen one otter. And that one was dead, washed up on my beach. Where are people having issues with them?

Re: Cormorants
With all due respect, it was retaliatory. See the posts above mine. I have a great deal patience, but even I have a limit. Trying to explain something sixteen times to someone who does not want to listen and insists upon being insulting is it, apparently.
