With ur aggressive word play I figured we would bump heads sooner or later. On the topic tho, I don't care what people say about bowfin, they might beable to live with bass and other native fish but they are making it hard for them.
EX-1
I was fishing white city lake in Trenton, NJ in 07. It was spawning season and no lie I watched a school of 6 bass from 2-3lbs protecting one bed. Why cause the bowfin swiming around eating all their eggs are 2-3 times bigger and 200% more agressive.
EX-2
Every lake that bowfin have become abundant. All other species have become harder to catch.
I'm not tring to justify killing any fish that I'm not goin to eat but bowfin, snakeheads, and all other fish like them are not good for the bass population. That's just my OPINION and what I have noticed from my fishing spots over the last four years.
BTW- I'll never kill a bass on purpose or eat one for that matter!!!!
Crappie tho, I'll eat every one I catch!!!!
LOL!!!!!!
