I hear you. I wonder what effect smallmouths may have on less obvious spec=
ies, or on the Atlantic whitefish.
I think the wisest course is not to introduce exotics. The consequences ar=
e too unpredictable.

Hi John & All,
I think the reputation of Small-mouth Bass has been sullied by zenophob=
ia; introduced and therefore bad. I asked on Naturens shortly after I joine=
d, for proof that they were harmful and received only fluff.
They flourish where Trout can not survive, are fun to catch and, when s=
kinned and filletted, are good eating. I have never encountered Bass in lik=
ely Trout water. In marginal water large Bass may eat small Trout but I wou=
ld suppose that large Trout would do likewise.
Plants and animals should be judged on properties and effects not origi=
n.
Yt, Dave Webster, Kentville

Have never heard of any goldfish or carp down Yarmouth way. A former Germa=
n was interested in growing carp for the European market 35-odd years ago. =
I expressed grave doubt that he could get the permits. Don=E2=80=99t think=
anything happened.
Will try to remember to pass along any news on this and will keep ears open=
=2E
We gotta start eating and encouraging more people to eat pickerel and small=
mouth bass! No more fish intros., please!
