A recent study, Lakeshore Development Reduces Food Supplies For Fish, found:

“In the four [sample] lakes, terrestrial insects comprised up to 100 percent of the diet of fish in undeveloped lakes, in contrast to a maximum of 2 percent in developed lakes, a pattern that was also apparent at the regional and national scale.”

What implications does this have for you when your favorite undeveloped fishing lake gets developed?
