How many more this Fall????
I think the no wake restriction that was in effect this summer is probably the biggest cause of all of these infestations. The problem is that it was not consistent for all lakes. So people on a lake like Minnetonka that had the restriction still had somewhere else they could go at any given time. They should have made the restriction effective for ALL metro lakes. The people who likely spread this aren’t used to inspections, they just leave their boat tied up to their dock.
You don’t fish the metro much do you? Indy Waconia white bear and bald eagle all had no wake as long or longer than Tonka. No wake had no effect on the spread of zeebs.
This isn’t the end of the world people it’s not a pandemic or the collapse of an ecosystem. Look at Lake Erie it’s had zeebs for more than 20 years and is widely regarded as the best walleye fishery in the world. Tonka has had them for 5-7 years and I haven’t seen the fishing effected at all. Adapt and change folks…
Do you even fish the metro? White bear never had a wake restriction, it’s like 6 feet down why would it? Bald eagle never had one either. Get your facts straight
