There are few enough crappie lakes to start with to lose a good one to the birds. Hope they come back soon, but that hasn't been the experience in other parts of the state. C'ya on the water!!!!!

5/15/2011 2:09:00 PMHi Aaron, I was supposed to hit the water today but it just has been such a downpour here I stayed home and worked on my tackle line. I am afraid the lake will take a couple years to bounce back for the Crappie and Perch from the cormorant, I believe the larger bass were not affected but I am sure there will be a noticeable gap in year class for some time to come. Trout, I would say it just isn't worth driving any distance to try since they got wiped out , sure there are a few holdovers big enough to have escaped the cormorant. I will be hitting this lake up several times yet to get a better feel for whats happening and this coming years fish counting will definitely be of special interest to me.
