Any word as to what's been floating to the surface at Davis? I'm curious about the numbers and size of the pike killed. Thanks-

Vaughn

75 % brown bullheads
8 % Pike
less than 1% Rainbow Trout!

I hope everything goes well this time.

What the... no wonder I didn't catch a darn thing when I was there! No pike and no bullhead flys. :?

The Pike have had a grand time eating those trout! Guess they didn't care much for the spines on the Bullheads. Frenchman also has a heavy population of Bullheads, and they will take a fly!! I'm looking forward to the ice off next year and having Davis on fire with big dumb recently planted rainbows. If it's anywhere near as productive as the last time they poisoned/planted the lake, it's gonna be AWESOME!!
