[QUOTE="dean nelson, post: 255269, member: 1305"] Yeah buffs are not actually carp and are and are plankton feeders which is why you rarely catch them on hook-and-line unless you snag them vs common carp which are an invasive species from China and seem to have a distinct ability to out survive the Buffaloes which have a tendency to Winter kill for some reason. So when you winter kill and you start seeing northern pike, common carp and bullheads going down you know you're getting to the bottom of the barrel and you're having some serious winterkill issues cuz they're the toughest of the group. Jamestown res has a history of buff dieoffs so if all your seeing is them there's still hope but if there are commons too well then things clearly got pretty bad in parts of the Reservoir. As for DNA for I.D. You would literally have to be blind to need such a tool to help you tell the difference between the two. [/QUOTE]
