Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Well it's a sea fishing scene.
If you look at the Irish sea, a vast area, and want to catch sea trout, which only spawn in the inflowing rivers, then you must accept that the wild spawning of sea trout is only sufficient to provide sea trout fishing in the rivers themselves, and in the coastal areas right along the nearby shore.
the spawning is appropriate for that much stock.
But the Great Lakes are like several Irish seas made of freshwater, If you are prepared to think bigger, and ban trawlers, then you could say, what if we stock enough fry to put sea trout all over the Irish sea? For when the sea trout are off lets also put in Chinook (to 50lbs) and Atlantic salmon (to 30lbs), and steelhead rainbows (lake and stream fishing), and brown trout (same) wouldn't that be game fishing over a vast area, and jobs for hundreds of thousands more people, and think of the fishing, tackle, boatmaking, engine sales and servicing, food, and tourism industries that would thrive around a game fishing lake the size of the Irish sea. The size of such a recreational fishery is mind boggling, and they have several in those lakes. They stock fry not big fed fish.
You have to imagine brown trout hunting and feeding on herring/mackerel shoals (the shad) to get an idea of where the growth rates come from.
Check it out. They have the worlds best trout and salmon fishing, not thousands of miles away in Alaska but situated right beside big cities, and the fish were stocked no bigger than fry. The fish that run the spawning streams in autumn are enormous.
Would you be curious about making the Irish sea into a Corrib/Mask type fishery with boat launches at Dublin, Dundalk, Wexford, Cork and Belfast and places inbetween and full with fish the size of that, and all publicly available with your state license, not private?
That's what they have got. I wouldn't knock it until I try it!

interesting post....but i don't think its the size of the lakes that matter??? just that they are better managed, yes no? you are 100% about the economic benefits of such fish 'Engineering' there is no doubt about that...for a angler who prefers wild fisheries it might not be the most appealing, but each to their own and i am not knocking their systems, i fished over there and the fisheries are so well managed compared to here.0 -

The fullstops marked in blue, they are what i meant.
You dont have to stop using them, i just think id enjoy your posts more without.
They only serve to make your posts harder to understand sometimes.
Use a comma instead if you want
yep you did not understand the last post ....
i said they are the F word ....
i was making a joke ....0 -
