Hey yall, the girls and I were throwing our cast net at Winfrey Park Saturday night looking for some bigger shad, and we caught 4 or 5 grass carp that were about 6 to 10 inches long... Are there big grassers in White Rock, and what's the rule there... Automatic culling of grassers or mandatory release?

6-10 inches long? I thought they couldn't reproduce?

there are other lakes where they have been found( young ones ) where they were suppose to be sterile . so i can believe you caught some in a throw net
