Stocking appears to have wound down after 1983. Confirm whether it is still topped up or now fishes as a residual, wild population. The chart below shows the full release history.
The fishing
Lost fishes as a put-grow stillwater: work chironomids under an indicator over the shoals in spring, then leech and attractor retrieves along the drop-offs as the shallows warm. The stocking record below is the truest read on the size and cohort of fish you will find.
