Here's one problem the lake salmon won't see.

Not yet anyway - just wait until one of those seals hops a ride in the bilge of one of the vessels that keep introducing new species to our lovely lake!! :evil:

The sea lions are a major pain to the commercial salmon trollers in Alaska too. They will follow the boats and eat the salmon that get hooked up quicker than the fisherman can land them. The only thing to do to them is to shoot them(illegal of course) or swing in close to one of your trolling buddies and hope that he has a salmon hooked up to attract him to his boat. What are friends for?

When I lived in San Diego, I did a whole lot of tuna fishing. Those things would follow us out of the harbor for 100 miles. You would hook up a tuna and if one of those nasty things grabbed your tuna, all you got was a head. The captains used to try to run em over. One of em would shoot at em. He never shot at em but close enought to try to move em away.

They are nasty nasty animals. They can take your leg off with one bite. **** all over the place too. Just Nasty I tell ya!
