Bass catches have been down for us for two years now in the Emlenton/Kennerdell area. Sizes are still pretty good. However, the overall catch rates are down. Increased species diversity has increased however. This summer there was a day where our usual bass tactics resulted in more walleye than bass. This was a first in our 30 years of the area. Are bass populations controlled only by natural reproduction and slot limits?
