True. I like them.

I love pikeminnow! They are really interesting and kinda badass! Like seriously, a cyprid that has evolved to be an apex predator?!? That’s soooo coool! I hope that one day we can create a culture where we value biodiversity and native life…..

cool

This fish will eat salmon smolt even though they are not hungry, and then puck them up. Dams provide the perfect environment for the Pikeminnow. They love to lay in a spot with slow current with a faster current running by it with bait. They are a lazy fish. Their numbers would be out of control on the Columbia river, if not for the "Columbia River PikeMinnow Reward Program".

All predatory fish are opportunistic. The actually invasive bass and sunfish do the same thing and nobody complains about them. Instead of persecuting native and unique fish we should focus on managing our fresh water better and updating dam designs. All that money the government gives to the pikeminnow bounty hunters could be used to actually address the problems at their sources.

This video makes it sound like the pokemon now is a good fish. It is a very bad fish. Kill them if you catch one

its not the fishes fault..look into the mirror... we put the dams up.. that keep salmon and steelhead from running to the spawing grounds.. before we put the dams up.. the salmon, steelhead and pikeminnow lived in the same stream and rivers... yes they will eat small salmon and the loose eggs.. but so do the rainbow trout, steelhead.. bull trout and the dollly varden..now is it the pikeminnows fault... or the human in the mirror
