History & Status of the Fishery

A temperature-dissolved oxygen profile was collected in the deepest basin on Moose Lake on August 23rd, 2023 to evaluate the amount of cold, oxygenated water (i.e., oxythermal habitat) available to Lake Trout, Lake Whitefish, and Cisco, also known as Tullibee. Based on the profile, the top of the thermocline (i.e., the location in the water column with the sharpest transition from warm to cold water) occurred at approximately 20 feet. The dissolved oxygen did not reach 3.0 mg/L or less throughout the profile, and therefore there was sufficient oxygen from the surface to the bottom of the lake at the time of sampling. Since no TDO3 value can be calculated, the lowest dissolved oxygen level recorded was 3.7 ppm at 4.9°C (40.8°F) which was found at the deepest depth of the profile (167.3 feet).

TDO3 values cooler than 8.8°C for Lake Trout, 17.2°C for Lake Whitefish, or 21.5°C for Cisco indicate that oxythermal conditions are favorable for these species. Dissolved oxygen concentrations below the thermocline indicate that suitable oxythermal habitat for Lake Trout was available across a range of depths at the time of sampling. When adequate oxythermal habitat is available, Lake Trout, Lake Whitefish, or Cisco are not squeezed into unfavorable, warmer water conditions and therefore do not experience higher levels of stress.

Great walleye in the last few years. Has anyone been up this way this year? Our group will be up there at the end of September. Hopefully the fishing will be great again. Tons of walleye, smallies and lake trout. Only drawback is you have to portage in.
