What lake?

Its not always some moron with a bucket, often its from ducks and other aquatic bird species having fertilized eggs stick to them and flying from one lake to another. What normally didn't have a species of fish in all of the sudden does this is often the reason why.

I never seen blackspot until recently in Birch Lake. Pike often have it so maybe that could explain the blackspot.

And would you perchance have pictures of these wounds.


Thanks.
What is it with the constant request for pic's? I am wondering if some guy dies on the ice or in a boat a report would not be good enough for you unless we had a pic of him in the coffin being lowered into the ground.

That specific area is known for the morons with the bucket. Its mostly perch and its a problem with illegal stocking in that area. I have heard rumors that Phyllis is going to be taken off the trout stocking program because of it.
