Im with you. One of my favorite spots. I doubt the state will invest a single penny to restock the lake. I drive by daily checking my fur traps. Looks to still be very much in progress.

that place will take years to come back if it ever does....such a shame...........they better stock it with some breeders.....my friend said he saw many 5 and 6 # bass floppin in mud after they drained it.....why could nt they save these fish or pull them out instead of rotting on the bank....i live rite down the road and probably will never fish there again...fished there months ago thought we would have caught some..... all dinks...at least you know the structure now..........if it ever comes back from the ice age......

Ughhh....sorry to hear that.

you have to look on the bright side.

when its back up, fill it with fish on your own. while its down, create some srtucture.

Maybe they were just good Samaritans saving them, and trans-stocking them in another pond, lake, river.

It's a possibility.

That's what I would have done if fish were left to die.

I hope they do something to put fish in there. I'm assuming their done with the damn repairs?

guys,

if you are waiting for the DEEP to stock bass or other warm water local game fish of any kind, dont hold your breath.

ive not heard of any stocking program that is successfully self sustaining except the northern pike program in this state. the walleye fail, the trout are spring and fall survivors only and then few holdover in deep cooler water, and after that there isnt anything.

thin as it is, and not really in charge of stocking fish in lakes, you might want to consider contacting hatchery division, and see if there has been any notification to import or propagate fish. i doubt it highly.


the lake can be re stocked. you know how.

Yup but its going to take years

I hear you. Thats my favorite lake in this part of the state. Youre right.....they probably wont.

I got an answer from DEEP. I was pretty sure I knew what the answer would be.

"At this time there are no plans to restock bass. Fish populations typically come back on their own (although sometimes there are shifts in abundances, composition and size structure) following drawdowns such as Glasgo Pond experienced."
