A lot of good replies here, thanks for the conversation.
I would tend to be in the camp, as others have said, that less fish would actually mean more bigger fish. But im no biologist. So who knows, but going off my experiences, and I fish an almost ridiculous amount lol, places with many fish have smaller fish, and places with less fish seem to have bigger fish, and in some places that I fish, low quality water, very few fish, there is very, very large fish. And I think its not coincidence.
The bottom line is Spring is what it is, and its a great fishery for smaller-medium fish, a place you can be pretty much assured your gonna get a bunch of strikes/catches. That is one of the problems of today, everyone wants to change everything, and sometimes things are ok as is.
And as others replied, as far as big fish, there is a ton of other places to get them, and its not overly difficult for those that put in the time to find them. So Spring is fine as is, and I enjoyed reading this.
