Several years of yellow perch stockings were conducted after the lake renovation. Natural reproduction of yellow perch has been documented and there is an abundance of spawning habitat. Northern pike are stocked each year. Most northern pike are hammer handles, but they should experience some growth over the next few years. Expect bullhead numbers to grow in the coming years.(2017)
