Considering the small size of Squaw Creek and tournaments being held every weekend is the lake being over fished?

not even close since they are only open three days a week and limit the number of boats on it not to mention that all of the tournaments are C&R

I think the tilapia that have become so prevalent will have a bigger affect. Maybe good, maybe not.

I love fishing squaw creek!. Even, 11 years ago before it closed.
If it didn't get "fished out" then, it sure will not now with the new restrictions and specific fishing days mentioned above.
The fishing used to be incredible down there, ( still not back to the old Squaw) and they allowed WAY more boats. I've sat in lines that stretched all the way out to 144.
I wouldn't mind seeing a few other lakes mixed in between all of the "squaw Creek open" tourneys.
I love it, but not enough to fish it every weekend.
The amount of bait and forage in the lake is unreal. It will rebound to great extents, as long as we the fishermen take care of it.
