Members FliTrap4 Posted March 5, 2006 Members Posted March 5, 2006 Looks like a nother risky way for water critters living in one area to end up in the waters some place else! While these little critters may be fun to rais / keep as "pets", the buyer could get tired of them and dump them in a local stream! May not be a big deal unless they have some type of germs or could take over the area! In S.E. Mo. they had that same issue come up when some crayfish were released from one area to another, and the "intruders" about wiped out a smaller, local Crayfish that are at risk anyhow! Just a thought!

Flitrap Yeah, that is the same thing I thought. Next, they will be trying to sell white perch, or zebra mussels. Both of which, KS lakes are getting explosive growth in about every lake out here.

Wayne SW/MO Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 How did the Perch get started? Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
CaptainT16 Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 From what I have heard they were started by people using them as bait and spreading them around area lakes and rivers. They just have had explosive growth that many lakes actually are having white perch tournaments to try and thin them out. They look exactly like a white bass, but are just smaller. I read an article in the Wichita Eagle about officials netting walleye this year and taking their eggs and incubating them until they are 1-2 inches long due to the fact that the perch are eating their eggs. I have fished out at Lake Cheney just west of Wichita and have put a worm on jig fishing for walleye, and it's like as soon as you get the bait on the bottom, the perch are all over it.
