I believe this needs to be done as I have seen these birds wipe out the perch population on a good sized lake in Perry sound, and can only imagine what they are doing to the bait population in Lake Ontario.
On numerous trips this past summer out of port Credit the cormorants where grouped up feeding. The one time the birds were occupying at least one square mile of the waters surface. I’m a hunter myself and think this would be great for protecting our fisheries and also create a new opportunity for revenue for the province and charters/outfitters on our provinces waters.
Of coarse safety, zoning regulations and bird disposal have to be established and shot birds would need to be recovered but I still feel that this would a double positive, protection of our bait fish population and give another opportunity for people to enjoy a form of hunting in Ontario.
