Art, comorants have been recorded at depths of 275ft.
Santee's depth just made it easier for the birds to get the fish.
and the lack of grass leaves a clean bottom resulting in NO WHERE for the fish to hide.
Bet your bottom dollar, the birds WILL do the same thing to Murray as they did Santee.

I am by no means saying slaughter the bird's in mass numbers, but 16,000 just on the SNWR, come on, that place is minute compared to the rest of the lake.
Go watch em by the thousands ravage baitfish at marker 47 next winter.
Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.
