“We did it just right. The fish were coming out of pre-spawn, so we caught them on the move.”
David Mauldin
“Our goal is to minimize, and where possible eliminate, the harvest of naturally spawning fish that provide the foundation for recovery.”
James Connaughton
“Look for areas adjacent to spawning grounds, which they'll be moving into. Look for vertical structure in the main lake with deep water nearby. You wouldn't fish shallow flats in February or March.”
Ernie Pate
“The gravel went with a gentle slope, and that's where the fish were. I knew they spawn in that area. The wind helped a lot.”
Shinichi Fukae
“What they are going to have to do for pre-spawn is back off a little more.”
Brian Duplechain
“Tradition is like a bad father. It spawns innovation, yet is the very one most intent on destroying it.”
Dedrick D. L. Pitter
“We have adjusted the fisheries to ensure escapement (fish allowed to spawn) objectives are met.”
