What is fueling your fire about this "native strain of walleye. They are already there ,granted you don't catch as many on Cumberland fishing the main lake as you do the Erie strain but they are there. They are the ones that run up the rivers and feeder creeks EVERY spring . The Erie strain spawns on the main lake flats and gravel bars.
What is the benefit of "native " over stocked strain if the are all spawning.
Cumberland is full of walleye no matter where their ancestors where hatched
