Ron,
I agree with you 100%. The pike population in Yuba has passed the tipping point just as it did in Comins Lake in Nevada years ago. I submit that if there isn't a significant harvest of pike from Yuba, they'll overpopulate and stunt. Throw into the equation the vagaries of the water demands on that pond and it becomes virtually unmanageable. I submit we all oughta enjoy it while it's available. Come September we'll likely only be able to get pike by gathering up the carcasses along the banks of the Sevier downstream.
