Catch per net (CPUE) is the DNR survey's count per gill net or trap net set; higher means more of that species were sampled, not a fishing forecast. Top species per gear shown; where we have no verified common name for a DNR code, the code itself is shown.
Test netting indicates a good population of Northern Pike, Black Crappie, Largemouth Bass and Pumpkinseed. The large amount and individual size of Bluegills indicates a stunted population.
