Just read an article in the Dayton paper over the weekend that really had some startling news. Caesers Creek resivoir has been found to have Zebra Mussels in the lake.
I have a friend in the DNR and we had a very long discussion about it. We are both in agreement that, in a small lake like Caesers...it could be devistating
The great lakes has them and have for years but, even now we have no idea what the long term effects will be. They are also in the Ohio River With all the transpotation of exotics to different places that they should not be part of that eco system....Where does it all end?
I can show you acres of pines on Dale that are all dying because of an exoctic beetle from a foreign land that was brought over somehow and is slowly destroying the land.
Snakeheads and Bighead carp are invading some of our waters.
People are dumping different types of shad and other exotics to other waters by simpy dumping out there baitbuckets or livewells.
How can we stop it? OR can we?
