captpierre Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Just wondering. Since gobies are in Simcoe, does anybody know how far east they've spread? peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 They've been in Rice Lake since 2007. I don't know how far west from there they've traveled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ttahhan Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) A little information of the situation..... Institute for Watershed Science Trent University Proceedings of the State of the Kawartha Lakes MNR Aquatic Invasive Species Here's a video post i found From The Root Admin ""Spiel""... of round gobies decimating a smallmouth bass nest I guess that explains why lately the bass are consuming gobies as there prime meal source.....Hmmmm Edited September 25, 2012 by Topwater Strikes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 I have only seen them in simcoe and rice. None in the other kawartha lakes, but it won't be long. S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelie hunter Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 Caught several gobies in minnow traps during the spring and summer, in Rice Lake. They are in thick there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess within 10 yrs they will be all along the Kawarthas. Any impact by them in Rice Lake from those who know? Should take out some zebra mussels. That would decrease water clarity. 'Eyes would like that. However they'll eat a pile of eggs. Edited September 26, 2012 by captpierre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
