This is great news for all…

This is great news for all that enjoy our wonderful waterways. I am on the St Lawrence river on a daily basis most of the open water season and it is just outragous the number of Cormorants on the river and taking over all of the islands our terns and seagulls used to nest on as well as flocking up and dive bombing the schools of perch all over the river and I know they are hitting perch as we pull up on the boat and mark them on sonar and catch a few to confirm. They are now moving inland and wiping Ponds clean of minnows also and if you are fishing on the river and don't have a cormorant fly by every 5 min or more you are blind. We counted over 100 cormaorants fly by in a 15 min time frame as we kept track. I watched one at the Morrisburg boat launch catch 3 fall fish and eat them and still kept right on fishing. Get it passed and lets manage these birds as the 1st ones we seen was in 1979 on the St Lawrence river and they are multiplying at alarming rates
