Don't we selll steelhead eggs to the asian market for their consumption? Uh oh, better drop the bomb on them! wink

Actually, do suckers root up and eat steelhead eggs? Sure, they'll eat the dead and dying eggs on the bottom, but I don't think they root for eggs. I'd ask someone here in Fisheries, but I don't know of anyone doing sucker research!

Personally, I say leave them suckers alone. They clean up the river bottom. Personally, I have more of a problem with the people that litter and leave fish carcasses on the banks then I do with suckers.
