Most years in February, perch and northern pike start coming into the river
apparently from Height of Land Lake which is just a half mile or so
upstream, but there was no sign of them now. Height of Land Lake is also
very susceptible to winter kills as it is weedy and shallow and I've seen
huge numbers of fish driven from the lake into the river during winters with
a lot of snow cover. There isn't much snow this year though, so apparently
they're all doing well in the lake.
That's about all of the fish new hear this time of the year. Take care,
