Well much of this information is known, and I guess next year we'll get to see what the bass management lake regulation changes have done to the populations.
I only have a copy of the 2003/2004 data in this report: Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration F-57-R-22 Annual Performance Report April 1, 2003– March 31, 2004
In this they state that they will be evaluation the impacts of the regulation changes to the bass management lakes. When this comes out we'll have information to talk about. If the changes worked, perhaps we'll see the DEP make more changes. Remember though, you can't manage for just bass without having potential impacts on other species.
