I think it would be different for bass, as they would most likely be introduced to only a few places first, so people would start catching them and want them elsewhere, then take it upon themselves to move them around and illegally introduce them wherever they wanted. If they got put into certain places it could be very bad for local fish populations there and affect the entire lake.

But see that is a contradiction to what has been said many times over Bass can not survive in Alberta waters so how can they affect the natural fish population
