It appears that PWF did an electro shock survey. Can you summarize the results?

Sure. Great Lake. you're  going to love it!

We electrofished in the fall and we found high densities of bass in the 2 to 3 lb category. Most fish were above 90% of relative weight, which is good. We did not shock many dinks and did not shock anything over 6 lbs. But shocking big fish is unusual, even in lakes where there are lots of big fish. Out of 50 lakes a year that we may shock, we probably shock 10 or so bass over 8 lbs. Forage base is bluegill and red ear sunfish. We did not shock up any rough fish (gar, buffalo, carp). I don't recall if we saw in crappie and electrofishing boats struggle to catch non scaled fish like catfish. We did find a spot in the NE corner of the lake about 100 feet out from the shore and the small cove that held dozens of 3 lbs fish. It won't be hard to find its in and around the timber.

Steve. Thanks. I used Google earth to overview the property and noticed the multiple clumps of standing timber. Looking forward to the afternoon of February 7th.
