Temperature and dissolved oxygen profiles were conducted in late August when the pit was thermally stratified. The thermocline was found to be located from 22 to 35 feet of water and the dissolved oxygen levels were adequate for trout throughout the water column. This assessment was conducted in mid October using standard gill nets set in deep water and ? inch mesh trap nets set along the shoreline. Gill nets were set in three locations and captured only three rainbow trout. These trout varied from 12-13 inches in length and were probably stocked in May of this year. The gill net catch also included white sucker and rock bass that directly compete with trout for the limited food items available in this mine pit. Due to the steep walls around most of this mine pit only three sites could be found to set trap nets. The catch in these trap nets was light and contained mostly small rock bass, three largemouth bass, and no trout. Also ? inch mesh, wire minnow traps were set to capture smaller non-game fish species but no fish were captured.
