Although I don't remember when the stories were published in the North Bay Nugget Newspaper, I do recall the content of the story. I feel that the cause of the fish stocks depletion in Lake Nippissing has more to do with overfishing and the misuse of fishing nets by the surrounding Native communities than by the Cormorants. The photos showing abandoned nets loaded down with rotting fish was heartbreaking. So wasteful and disturbing. Made me think that those were the ones that were found so how many are there out there that have not been found? I have no issues with subsistence fishing. I do have a problem with waste and misuse of any natural resources. Spend Government money hunting the perpetrators of these offences and leave the wildlife alone.
