History & Status of the Fishery

The 1998 walleye catch was high for lakes of this class, but not for this lake historically. The walleye population was entirely natural, and several year classes were included in the catch. Walleye growth rates appeared to have been fairly fast for a lake of this class, probably due to the presence of an excellent yellow perch forage base.Yellow perch were abundant, and many large fish were present. Yellow perch growth had also been relatively fast. The northern pike catch was about average for lakes of this class, and for this lake historically. Smallmouth bass were present; although none were taken in gill nets, YOY fish were collected in 1/4-in-mesh trap nets used in 1998.
