Great bassin’ there. Nice largies and smallies. I haven’t seen a rock bass in 3 years.

Ty.

both rock bass and largemouth were introduced into the lake some 30 years ago and they have thrived whereas the perch are on the decline

the rock bass are great when we get young ones up there and take them fishing with a float and tube......easily get a bite or fish every cast

Why did the Ministry release rock bass in many lakes?
