History & Status of the Fishery
Black Crappie is the species most often pursued on Moose Lake. Abundance in 2016 was within the expected range for this lake type. Many older (larger) fish were present in the sample. The 2009 and 2010 year-classes represented 67% of the sample. Length in trap nets ranged from 4.4-10.9 inches and the mean was 9.2. Mean weight was 0.44 pounds, which was above the expected range for this lake type.
Largemouth bass is another popular choice on Moose Lake. Night electrofishing was used to sample a total of 18 Largemouth Bass on one sampling night in late May, which was about double the rate observed in each of the two previous investigations. So abundance appears to be up in Moose Lake. Length ranged from 9.1 to 17.5 inches and the mean was 12.5. Mean weight was 1.12 pounds.
Northern Pike abundance has varied over time and stocking seemed to increase numbers temporarily. The highest abundance was observed in 1988 (8.00 fish/set), which occurred after stocking events in 1984 and 1985. However, by 2009, Northern Pike abundance was down to 0.50 fish/set. Stocking occurred again in 2013 and 2015. Abundance increased to 1.50 fish/set in 2016; however, it remained below the expected range for this lake type.
Historically, Yellow Perch abundance has been variable in Moose Lake with a high of 33.00 fish/set and a low of 1.50 fish/set. In 2016, Yellow Perch abundance was within the expected range for this lake type. However, sizes were small. Yellow Perch are likely more important as forage for predators rather than recreational fish for anglers.
