I dont believe the state has done anything to remove rockies in sunapee. There is a rock bass catch & keep tourney that is not state run. Generally once a species is in and established there is nothing to do to eradicate them short of poisoning everything. There is some hope that the rockies will eventually crash down to a level the bass can recover at.
I think the smallmouth can weather the storm in alternate areas. I recently found a giant school of juvenile smallies, 6" to 10" suspended at 25ft in 35ft of water. They are still out there. Maybe the smallies have been driven out to the salmon areas and are competing with them now?
