Climate vs weirs/oysters etc.
After seeing a really good summer on numbers of fish this summer. Makes me believe climate has more to do with lack of shrimp/fish than anything else. We had a really cold winter that delayed shrimp showing up and ended up with more shrimp/specks in lake in a long time. If i remember correctly we used to always have really cold winters when the fishing was good all summer 20 -30 years years ago. Cold winters and hurricanes means good shrimp/speck catches. Just Saying!

makes too much sense man so you are not going to get any comments on it
I will add a fun fact about Weirs. One of the founding members of the Grateful Dead was Bob Weir. After Jerry Garcia died, Bob Weir created a band that still tours to this day. The band is called RatDog:spineyes: Is there a correlation between our very own RatDog and this? Ratdog - were you a 'deadhead'? |

RatDog may even be a member of the band, who knows:spineyes: |
as long as he isnt the singer. sometimes he cant put a words together and sometimes he can.... guess that wouldnt be much different from ozzy... wait

The size of the trout in the lake are terribly small. Wading through tons of undersized fish didn't happen pre weirs according to the "fish" tales of my pops and friends.

Re read this thread, the autograph you need is right before your eyes. DuckButter, will you sign my T-Coon's shirt? |

If this is in fact true, then the overall condition/size of trout must have progressively dropped since 1988. If that is not the case, then how can the argument be made that the weirs are the single causative factor? |

You speak of fishing being good years ago, if you were at the meeting a couple weeks ago there was a bar graph that showed how many days a year the weirs were open, and they were open more often back then. Yes the winters were cold and wet back then as well, but the fishing during the spring was usually fantastic, with many many big fish being caught. This year, complete opposite of that. Do the weirs being closed directly correlate to bad fishing? Who knows, but it is well worth noting. I'm over the weir argument, as I believe there are two other bigger issues. |
small trout have been the norm for several other areas to our east too this year, but they have been blaming BP:rotfl: the west side blames the weirs, but ..
The way I see it is everything was a month behind this year. Shrimp didn't get the memo this year either as they were late as well. The season on them was late, and everything eats shrimp. Some folks also need to study up on the life cycle of a shrimp and when they come from the gulf into the marsh and when they leave the marsh and go into the Gulf as they got it backwards:spineyes: |
