Join us in the fight to prevent the spread of invasive species These sneaky creatures can hitch a ride on boats, clinging onto propellers, anchor lines, and trailers. They can even survive in hidden places like bilge water and ballast tanks, or disguise themselves in dirt and sand that sticks to nets, buckets, anchors, and waders. But don't worry, we have the power to stop them in their tracks with just a few simple steps. So let's do our part and protect our waters from these unwanted invaders.


History & Status of the Fishery

The Courthouse Lake fish population has changed significantly in recent years due to flooding. The 1993 flood allowed many species found in the Minnesota River to migrate into the lake, including northern pike. Since Courthouse is a designated trout lake, northern pike are not a desirable species to have present. Therefore a total lake reclaimation was deemed nessessary. This was scheduled for the fall of 1994. During the spring of 1995 rainbow trout will be restocked in the lake.
