Zack Hoyt Posted November 19, 2009 Author Posted November 19, 2009 If I ever catch a "stocked" smallmouth... I ain't fishing anymore! I have mentioned many times the DMV needs to drop the largemouth and trout license plate and do a smallie......it is arkansas only native species.

eric1978 Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 If I ever catch a "stocked" smallmouth... I ain't fishing anymore! We got some rivers that could use some help. The Bourbeuse could use a few thousand, for example.

Eric... let's not go back to what that river system needs. Keep doing what you think you need to do over there bud... KC HUMAN RELATIONS MANAGER @ OZARK FISHING EXPEDITIONS

Wayne SW/MO Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Smallies, or so I've always heard, don't do well stocked in rivers. They also say that they don't do well in lakes unless the stockers are from lake fish. Table Rock Lake, Boone County, 2,000 yearling channel catfish This would seem to fit the Drop in a Bucket category, as would the Crappie stocking at Norfolk. I wonder what Missouri's numbers look like? Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
