History & Status of the Fishery
Lake trout were introduced in Mesaba Lake in 1977. Reproduction has been very limited and present numbers are low. Test nets in 1993 sampled only one lake trout, a large individual weighing 8.8 lbs. Angler harvest of lake trout is expected to be low and probably will remain so until the stocks are increased thru stocking. Northern pike are the only other gamefish in Mesaba Lake and are present in average numbers. Angling for northern pike may not be highly successful as much of the lake is deep and drops off fast. Shallow weedy areas which normally hold northern pike are scarce. The fish taken in test nets average 2.5 lbs with sizes ranging from 18" to 27".
