History & Status of the Fishery
A targeted survey was completed in the spring of 2023 on Lake Andrew to assess the Bluegill and Black Crappie populations. A special regulation that reduced the daily sunfish limit from 20 down to 10 was implemented in the spring of 2022. The goal of this new regulation is to maintain or increase the average size of Bluegill. This survey will be used to help evaluate effects of the regulation on the Bluegill population. Bluegill catch rates were high, but only 16% of Bluegill were preferred-size (>8.0 inches). Growth rates of Bluegill in Lake Andrew are fast and 6 year old Bluegill averaged 8.5 inches in length. The largest Bluegill observed in the survey was 9.1 inches. Black Crappie catch rates were low and all fish captured were age 4 and younger. Approximately 24% of the fish were greater than 10 inches in length. Black Crappie growth rates are fast; average length of age 4 fish was 10.2 inches. The largest Black Crappie in the sample was 10.5 inches.
Quality fishing opportunities exist for multiple species in Lake Andrew. Anglers are encouraged to practice selective harvest to help sustain the quality of the fishery. Selective harvest encourages the release of larger fish while promoting harvest of more abundant smaller fish. Releasing medium to large fish can help restore and maintain fish community balance, as well as increase opportunities to catch large fish in the future.
Lake Andrew was designated as an infested water after the discovery of zebra mussels in 2016. Recreational users should take necessary precautions to prevent further spread of invasive species. Drain all water and remove all aquatic vegetation from your boat and trailer when leaving any body of water.
