Exactly my question. I have a cabin on a lake in southeastern Ontario which
contains Lake Trout, Lake Herring, Northern Pike, Walleyes, Largemouth bass,
Smallmouth Bass, Yellow Perch, Bullheads, Rock Bass, Bluegill Sunfish,
Pumpkinseed Sunfish and Bluntnose minnows. The Walleye are least numerous,
followed by the Northern Pike. Something keeps these two predator fish under
control.
