It was a PITA to fish due to all the weeds. Not a big loss in my opinion.

not too good. Their idea for the weed problem is to let it die off from the drawdown? Once they fill it the weeds will come right back.

I agree 100% Spider.

 Or the DNRC will spray weedkiller in the spring, like they do down here at their state park lakes(Hopewell, Marsh Creek + the Nock). The problem is they always seem to have fish kills shortly after. They claim it is stress from spawning - never noticed it as bad before the spraying  ::)

the engineers already came up with a plan. They aren't gonna do a thing and hope the weeds go away on their own. They worked a lot of overtime on that plan!  :wacko:

That's the great greed commission, make everyone buy a $25 pheasant permit to hunt pheasants except for junior and mentored youth hunters.  I guess it doesn't cost anything to raise and stock pheasants for junior and mentored youth hunters.  Then on top of that they're making the senior lifetime license holders buy a pheasant permit to hunt them even though when they bought their lifetime licenses small game including pheasants was included in the lifetime license.  And if that doesn't get you mad they just signed a multi-million dollar contract with a company to remove coal from certain game lands.  Those idiots need to be ran out and put people in with a brain rather than a sky high level of greed.

THEIR BIG PROBLEM IS HUNTERS, REVENUE, THATS WHAT HAPPENED IN THE LAST 20 YEARS WITH ALL THE EXTRA PERMITS, DIFFERENT ARMS "CROSSBOWS,INLINES, EXTENDED SEASONS, TRYING TO GENERATE MORE INTEREST AND HUNTERS, DID YOU GO ARCHERY HUNTING IN THE 60'S OR 70'S?? HOW COMPLEX WAS YOU BOW BACK THEN?? FLINTLOCK IN RAIN AND SNOW TRYING TO KEEP YOUR PAN POWDER DRY , THEY ARE TRYING TO MAKE IT AS EASY AS POSSIBLE,40 YEARS AGO I SAW LOTS OF YOUNG NEW BLOOD, YOUNG KIDS, HUNTING ON THE FIRST DAY, HOW MANY DO YOU SEE TODAY, WHEN WE ARE GONE WHO IS GOING TO BUY HUNTING LICENSES? THE VIDEO GAME GENERATION ::)DON'T THINK SO, PHEASANT STAMP, THEY WERE LIKE GEESE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD IN THE 60'S AND 70'S, NOW THEY ARE LIKE AN ENDANGERED SPECIES HERE, I WOULD FEEL BAD SHOOTING THEM. JUST MY 2 CENTS, SORRY FOR THE RANT, BUT THE FISH COMMISSION IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS AND IT IS NOT GETTING BETTER FOR THEM EITHER.

I always had fun on Peck's ice-fishing for pickerel in the late 80's & ealy 90's. Hope it stays great.
