The NCWRC doesnt have the funds to do that unless you want to get a job at Mcdonalds and help fund that.
They could do it.
Just a question of priorities.

F12. Blue Catfish – Lake Tillery, Lake Wylie, and Mountain Island Reservoir
Establish an exception to the general statewide regulation for Blue Catfish in Lake Tillery, Lake Wylie, and Mountain Island Reservoir by allowing only one fish greater than 32 inches to be possessed in the daily creel.
Interest in catfish angling is growing rapidly, and anglers seeking large catfish target the Blue Catfish populations in Lake Tillery, Lake Wylie, and Mountain Island Reservoir. Commission data indicate that Blue Catfish greater than 32 inches are rare in these populations and that it takes on average between 12 and 20 years for Blue Catfish to reach this size. The proposed size limit will restrict harvest of large Blue Catfish to help maintain quality fisheries in these reservoirs. Harvest of fish less than 32 inches remains unrestricted.
You could be talking to a gummy bear and feel like it was more intelligent, you do know that don't you?so you just pretty much summed it up. you can keep as many Blue cats as you want to under 32 inches. Hint, that means you can harvest all you want to under that size.
They could do it.

You are bat crazy. Have you ever electroshocked from a boat? Do you have any ideas of the limitations of shocking, especially depth and fish size? I would guess not given that comment.
That's about like saying the WRC could wipe out all of the coyotes if they wanted. Just a question of priorities.:roll eyes:
No, it's probably crazier than that. It would be one of the biggest wastes of money in a failing effort. I'll give you a hint: shocking has a limited depth reach, far short of where blue cats normally position, and is much less effective on smaller fish (more numerous). Good luck wiping them out.
Man, you've come up with some real zingers lately.
No, more like legend in your own mind status for you.
The mad scientist, or should I say ECOLOGIST.I should mention I am experimenting with using native red spruce as an alternative to the Norway spruce widely planted up here as wildlife and landscaping. But the Norway spruce grows very well and is widely available.
Didn't know that...
He is referring to cedar rust blight.He doesn't either. I could tell you more in PM otherwise he will argue something of which he knows nothing about
He is referring to cedar rust blight.
No it won't. As I had, 140 apple trees here at one time. I was plagued with it and cut every cedar tree on my property at the urging of my county agent. Sprayed just about fungicide imaginable and still fought that crap on some of the yellow varieties.As was I.
Cut the cedars all you want. That won't solve it.
