History & Status of the Fishery
A temperature-dissolved oxygen profile was collected in the deepest basin on Rose Lake on August 10th, 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 17 feet. Dissolved oxygen decreased to below 3.0 mg/L at 90.4 feet, which was below the thermocline, at the time of sampling. The temperature at which dissolved oxygen decreased to below 3.0 mg/L (i.e., TDO3, a single variable to characterize oxythermal habitat) was 4.8°C (40.6°F).
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 these species 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.
