The entire Shad restoration project the last 40 plus years has been an overall FAILURE. Funny how it now serves as an invasive species removal lift too. Mostly at taxpayer expense.I'd like to see the cat walk opened again to let fisherman have the joy of catching the invasive species.
Ever since the 70s I was told smallmouth were a non-native invasive species, guess they've been here so long they aren't considered non-native invasive
Sad, we have to pay extra to throw a cast net for bait, but these guys are taking thousands of pounds of fish out of our fishery. Invasive species?? I’ve been catching flatheads in the Susquehanna and Schuylkill rivers for 25 years now. Somehow I smell politics and money. Those catfish that they were showing were Channel cats.
