History & Status of the Fishery
A temperature - dissolved oxygen (TDO) profile was collected on July 31, 2023, to measure the amount of thermal habitat available for Tullibee. The TDO3 (temperature at 3 mg/l dissolved oxygen) was determined to be 6.4 degrees C and occurred at 31 feet, which is considered good for Tullibee survival. From just below the surface to around 48 feet the oxy-thermal habitat was above the critical threshold for tullibee, and was one of the better conditions measured in recent surveys. Comparing profiles collected from 2009-2023, the least amount of available Tullibee habitat occurred in 2012, while all other years had better conditions. The lake provides "good" habitat compared to other lakes in Aitkin area monitored for Tullibee habitat. Because the area is located near the southern edge of Minnesota's Tullibee range, TDO profiles should continue to be collected to monitor the availability of coldwater habitat.
