Calm night and subzero temps...I imagine it's all locked up this morning, but certainly not safe yet. On another night, I've been kind of bummed about this lake. Used to be one of my favorites and now it seems like the lakers are all fairly skinny. So I guess the question is, what is currently the natural bait fish in this lake? what are they feeding on (or no longer feeding on) ?
The walleye stocking program has really decimated the alewife, which was the goal. The alewife were introduced in the 80s and totally messed up the ecosystem. The only positive was bigger lakers, but almost all zooplankton were gone so other forage fish declined. The SUNY oneonta biological field station outside cooperstown has all the info on the topic. I'm a grad student there. Apparently Cisco and whitefish are starting to rebound and they were the original forage base for lakers
What are the dates for the derbies this year?
