History & Status of the Fishery
Memegwesi Lake is a designated stream trout lake that has been stocked with fingerling Brook Trout annually since 1990 with few exceptions. The lake is located about two miles northeast of Isabella. There is a carry-in access at the end of US Forest Service 368 with a 500 foot long trail and wooden steps down to the lake. The current management plan calls for 2,000 fingerling Brook Trout to be stocked annually in the fall.
A survey was completed in October 2022 to monitor the trout population and was the second survey completed after a lake reclamation was performed in 2016. Brook Trout catch was similar to the previous survey with a total of 24 fish sampled. Size of fish ranged from 9 to 14 inches long and averaged about 11 inches and a half a pound. The catch consisted of trout stocked the previous two years indicating adequate growth and survival in recent years.
It was not unexpected to catch White Suckers during this survey because they were captured in 2019, but the high catch was disappointing because their populations can impact the success of Brook Trout management through competition for food. The lake will continue to be monitored to determine if sucker abundance impacts the growth and survival of stocked Brook Trout.
