Against the DNR, which has authority over all navigable waters in the State, and along with local university scientists is managing the largest lakes as a "trophy northern pike" fishery, for the benefit of trophy anglers, and themselves through boat and fishing license sales.So essentially, you are railing against Nature. Got it.
This requires huge areas of weed beds to produce the prey species that the pike feed on. These weed beds occur in the shallow waters of the shorelines, which impacts lakeshore property owners, and any who wish to fish from shore. These huge weeds bed also impact pleasure boating as well as swimming as the over-fertile waters cause frequent beach closing because of toxic algae blooms. These algae blooms are also responsible for periodic fish kills, which add to the foul smells associated with the overall problem.
