History & Status of the Fishery
Fall night electrofishing was conducted on 9/12/2023 for the seventh consecutive year. Night electrofishing in the fall is a common tool used to monitor the abundance of young-of-the-year (YOY) and yearling (age 1) Walleye. This survey is intended to provide information on Walleye survival and recruitment (both natural and from fry stocking) and will be conducted annually as time permits.
The entire length of the shoreline was sampled, with a total sample time of 1 hour and 55 minutes, which resulted in a YOY Walleye catch rate of 27 per hour. This is a typical catch rate for Round Lake where past samplings have ranged from 7 to 45 per hour. Walleye fry are stocked in alternating odd years so YOY may be from the 2023 fry stocking. Fry stocked years have averaged 33 per hour and non-stocked years have averaged 10 per hour. YOY Walleye ranged from 4.7 inches to 6.7 inches and averaged 5.6 inches, which is a typical size both for other lakes in the region and for past Round Lake surveys. The catch rate for 1 yr old Walleye was 6 per hour, which is within the range of past catch rates of age 1 Walleye at Round Lake.
