History & Status of the Fishery
East Halverson is a small 22 acre lake located within the Paul Bunyan State Forest in Hubbard County. There is a primitive DNR Forestry campground with an unimproved earth ramp located on the southeast shore of the lake. Due to its small size and low fertility, East Halverson is very susceptible to over-harvest. Anglers must practice selective harvest it they want to improve the fishery in East Halverson.The DNR has classified Minnesota's lakes into 43 different types based on physical and chemical characteristics. East Halverson is in lake class 21. Other area lakes in this same classification include McCarty, Robertson, and Twenty.East Halverson provides fishing opportunities for northern pike and black crappie. Northern pike abundance (7.5 pike/gillnet) was at the high range when compared to other class 21 lakes. Sampled northern pike had an average length and weight of 22.3 inches and 2.6 lbs, with pike measured up to 31.8 inches. Northern pike growth was slow when compared to other area lakes. A low forage base may be limiting northern pike growth. East Halverson has an abundant black crappie population, however, crappie run small in size with few fish over 8.0 inches. The black crappie population in East Halverson is limited by slow growth rates.Other species sampled included pumpkinseed, black bullhead, and golden shiner. High numbers of pumpkinseed and black bullhead are present in the lake, however, they are generally not an acceptable size for angling.
