Comments: Adult black crappie, bluegill, and yellow perch were stocked the spring of 2009 to provide anglers with keeper-sized panfish and to help repopulate the pond. Walleye fry and fingerlings will be stocked in the spring and fall, respectively. Walleye fishing will be slow until stocked walleye grow to catchable sizes. Click above on 'Recent fish stocking' to see the latest stockings. A fish survey was conducted in 2012 using electrofishing found one largemouth bass and an extremely abundant population of small black bullheads. This would seem to indicate that winterkill occured on this waterbody prior to the survey. Stocking of panfish will be a priority in 2013 to provide a summer fishery at this pond.
