I fished Pine Coulee Reservoir this past weekend (Saturday, August 31st) and was a little bit disturbed by what I found.  There appears to be an overabundance of walleye in this lake. I fished from a kayak in about 14 feet of water about 100 yards from shore right next the Hwy. 527 causeway from about 8:30 am until about 2:30 pm. During this time I caught between 60 to 100 walleye.  The reason I stopped was because I ran out of minnows.  There are usually about 60-70 minnows in a store bought tub and I actually re-used some of the minnows a dozen times or more. This has never happened before and I found it quite incredible but also a little disturbing.
Every walleye I caught was 20-30 inches or longer but none were heavier than 2 lbs. In fact the majority were much lighter than 2 lbs.  I did not catch one pike or see anyone else catch a pike either.  The fact that this lake has a 3 pike limit with no size restrictions leads me to believe that the pike are being fished out.  I believe this is leading to a significant increase in the walleye population and it’s gone so far that the walleye are now competing with each other to create a lose/lose situation.  These walleye are too abundant and too skinny. Normally I wouldn’t complain about abundance but since they are all so small I am concerned.  I was happy to feed at least some of them as I think they are so aggressive because they are slowly starving.
I believe one or a combination of three things should be done immediately to correct this problem:
1.) Allow the walleye from this lake to be harvested by anglers.
2.) Use this lake a source for stocking other lakes. I took part in the Lac Ste. Anne to Wabamun Lake walleye transfer this year and from what I gathered it was a huge success.
3.) Place a 0 limit or a size restriction on pike. 
Anyone else fish this lake? Find the same thing? Find it to be different? Agree or disagree with me? Have any other possible solutions?
Cheers
