Update on the Selective Shad Eradication at Lake Waveland

[lakewavelandinfo]

The DNR conducted a follow up inspection on 11-15-10 after the selective shad eradication project that was conducted on 11-4-10 and concluded that the lake was ready for a little restocking. They were planning on stocking up to 1790 Musky on 11-17-10 and up to 17,900 Largemouth Bass on 11-18-10 depending on the hatchery availability.

I will say that it worked very well. I saw a lot of huge shads on the bank with only one unwanted casualty. It appeared to be a small musky. Would the stocking be frys or fingerlings? Great job!

We have confirmed that the Musky were in fact stocked but the Largemouth Bass were not do to availability. Seems that the DNR has also been working on projects at Pisgh and Stark Lakes and had already used all the available Largemouth.
