Fish Status |
Poor | The survey shows a population dominated by Bluegill less than 6”. The lack of fish habitat and angler harvest could be why we are not getting Bluegill in the preferred and memorable size classes. I recommend a supplemental stocking of Bluegill to aid in the recovery of the Bluegill population. | |
Poor | A total of 5 stock size fish and 7 quality fish were collected in Belvidere Pond North. The PSD and RSD of the population cannot be calculated due to the low number of fish collected in the survey. The Largemouth bass population has poor recruitment due to the bluegill population. I suggest a supplemental stocking of Largemouth bass and Bluegill to aid in the recovery of the Largemouth bass population. | |
