Whack a Carp - Help Pelican Lake!



Pelican Lake needs your help. Carp have invaded this shallow, weedy, fishery and are well on their way to destroying it. You can do your part by fishing or bowfishing for these Carp and removing them from the lake. If left unchecked, the Carp will eat all of the vegetation and will keep the water muddy. With muddy water the Bluegill can't find their food source and eventually the fishery will collapse. Take a friend or round up a group of friends and whack some Carp!. Right now the fish are in the shallows giving us the perfect opportunity to target them with bowfishing equipment. Spread the word! Here's a short video Natalie Boren, Northeastern Region Sportfish Biologist, Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, took while checking on the Carp at Pelican:
