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.
This targeted survey was completed to determine extent of winterkill following the severe 2022-2023 winter. Trap netting results suggested that a partial winterkill likely occurred, and some gamefish mortality was evident. Black Crappie and Yellow Perch were the only gamefishes sampled and smaller fish dominated both populations. Walleye fry were stocked in spring 2023.
