I know exactly where that whirlpool is. People were hurt up and down the Spring River. One simply expected it more at this Y split of a miniture mud island.

Great news. Hope this guy isn't one of the landowners that will threaten you with a shotgun for floating and fishing in a kayak.

The feral hog update was well done, thanks to the presenter for giving us the best information available on the situation. I will say, I know Christians won't understand this (because I was one and I wouldn't have understood at that point in my life), but the thought of opening a state organization's meeting with a Christian prayer is really disturbing to those of us who don't practice that particular religion. The separation of church and state exists for a reason, and if you don't make people from different walks of life feel like they belong in the fight for conservation, you'll lose it, especially as churches as a whole decline in membership despite a growing population. I also question why an oil CEO, who has undoubtedly contributed to the lobbying against climate change regulation and whose company has undoubtedly contributed to it, was one of the primary speakers. Even more puzzling is why he thought people wanted to hear about golf (a sport that is diametrically opposed to biodiversity) at a meeting for a conservation organization.

Why would fish evolve or adapt to humans harvesting of fish to balance their populations???? Doesn't make sense to me. Just because the people want artificial larger fish????
@Franky46Boy
@Franky46Boy Ай бұрын
That's the only weak spot in this story. Without humans there would not be Catch & Release of fish but also no fishing for the Pot (F for the P). No fish would be extracted other than by their natural predators. Catch & Release restores more or less the natural situation as if no human beings were there. Fish & Game departments are more or less catering for the needs and demands of their fishing license buyers (the sport fishers). And many of those fishers want to catch more trophy fish! And to get more trophy fish of a certain species, you have to harvest some of the smaller ones. You have to cull the population! But Catch & Release more or less restores the 'natural' situation as if there were no humans present...

​@@Franky46Boy the license buyers are essentially the only people paying for the maintenance and restoration of local bodies of water, part of people's taxes contribute but the bulk of the money generated for this work comes from people acquiring fishing licenses and hunting licenses.

Fish haven't adapted to humans harvesting them. The trout are competing for limited food resources and because of the lack of food don't grow to be as large. In humans taking the place of predators, which we are in the same way bears are, by culling the Smaller fish you decrease the amount of fish competing, which naturally occurs over the span of a few years in nature normally resulting in larger fish. This also serves as a form of conservation because having too many fish in a waterway could lead to the degradation of said waterway ultimately affecting the local ecology outside of just the trout. This might sound counterproductive and the idea that nature should correct itself should ideally be true; however, ironically enough, human action has shrunk the size of fish habitats and polluted the waterways in such a way that a lot of the waterways can not support them naturally anymore, so human action is required to correct for all of this

@@alejandromelecio The 'natural' situation is a population where only natural predators harvest the fish. Humans with their fishing gear have a far greater impact on trout populations than any other predator... So if you want to catch more big fish, you should extract all the fish you catch and don't put them back!
