History & Status of the Fishery

Rossman (Erickson) Lake has a tendency to partially winterkill during some winters. Algal blooms and lowwater clarity often make mid-summer angling difficult. Fish populations are somewhat indicative of a winterkilllake with high populations of black bullhead, northern pike, and bluegill. Northern pike tend to be somewhatsmall; average length is just 18.5". Bluegill, on the other hand, are relatively large in size. Over 60% of themare longer than six inches and nearly 10% are over eight inches long. Black crappie, yellow perch, and largemouthbass are all present in low to normal abundance and average size. Carp numbers seem to have leveled off duringthe past 10 years. The large carp now present (average weight is nearly 7 lbs.) may be less harmful to the lakethan an abundance of smaller ones. Walleye probably succumbed to winterkill during 1993 since none were caughtin test nets.
