Misguided Fishermen
Surreys of Virginia’s lakes find streams continue to bring to light the fact that fish are plentiful, but fishermen are not concentrating their efforts in the right localities and bodies of water, according to Dean Rosebery, assistant chief of the Commission's fish division.
Carvin Cove, a 650-acre lake located near Roanoke, joins the list of underfished lakes surveyed by fish technician, Bob Martin, his survey turned up the fact that Carvin Cove hinges upon an overpopulation of bass, causing them to fall short of the legal size limit by just a hair. There are too many fish for the amount of fhod,'
“Restocking here would be considered detrimental," says Rosebery, “and the solution lies in hard fishing." ■*,. : ?.
To further back up the fact that fishermen are misgraded, Rosebery and G. W. Buller, chief of the fish divison, found that in the small streams at the mouth of the Chickahominy River, water# which are fished but little, extremely high population of bass are going relatively untapped because fishermen just don’t fish there.
