We had a very busy spring and recently
got out electrofishing with Brian Zimmerman to confirm that Lake
Chubsuckers
were still present in Jackson Lake. They were, which is good news due
to their
status. I have also hit the Little Miami, and confirmed that the local
mountain
madtom populations are still doing well. Went jugging on the Little
Miami one
night with NANFAn Tony Branham and caught Flathead Catfish, a Snapping
Turtle,
and a Spiny Softshell Turtle. Also recently stocked fourteen 1-6 pound
Bowfin
in my pond with hopes of a good spawn next year. Went down to Kentucky,
and met
Josh Blaylock, and sampled. The highlights were Cumberland Plateau
Darter
(formerly Kentucky Arrow darter), Gilt, Channel, Tippecanoe, and
variegate
darters, and one Ohio Lamprey. Also I am busy working with Josh, and
others
planning the 2013 Kentucky convention. |
