I'll be there if at all possible. I wonder if the single pole folks will show up? Not hearing anything on the street.

Planning on attended myself. We'll make sure to pass along what info is shared.

Hey guys, just real quick. I am staff limited and covered up with job duties. This meeting will start out broad. Sportfish (crappie, bass etc) populations in KY and Barkley lakes will be discussed. Results of the crappie stocking project (2009-2013) in Blood River will be mentioned. Other management strategies can be discussed, and why they are not likely to work at our lakes. We can discuss pole limits, but it is not something that is on our proposed management strategy for crappie. Concerns with crappie populations will be heard, and hopefully preceptions can be debunked. Asian Carp issue will be discussed. If you have specific questions, please feel free to post them on this sting, and we can be prepared to respond to them. I will be glad to post some minutes on here after the meeting.

Thanks, Paul. I have heard nothing of anybody proposing pole limits on the street. It is just something that comes up from time to time on some forums, usually somebody just stirring the pot.
