beedhead Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Took a walk to the North end pond of B.H.(fellow fly casters call it ''Golden Pond''...RandyS came up with that one...That is a great name for that pond)...Seems there was some or all winter kill in there (a few ded fish that the Gulls hadn't got to yet) I asked a few people that fished it... if they had even a sniff..."Nope" (bloom tried it as well on sunday)....The water level is down about 18-20 inches compared to the last few springs....Myth 1228 said he seen a trout start flippen out in the Pond a couple days ago...Then died...Must have been a Lack of o2 thing??? Allot of LARGE fish used to winter on that side... Fishing was good today...A couple gooders...bout 22-23 inch males...Ice did not recede that much..Compred to yesterday...Was not at all a spring day out there...When I got there...it was snowing...Raining... sleeting and, The wind was a BLOWIN...Cleared up for a while... then it turned back into Feburary...Here are a few pics of the winter kill...

RandyS Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 So maybe Golden Pond isn't so golden right now. Is there water going through the culvert that joins the pond to the lake?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beedhead Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 Maybe Gas Bubble Deisese???...Sent the pics to Terry...Perhaps he might have an Idea on the winter kill on the North end??...I kinda think it is due to the extended ice on the lake and the low water level this spring....

Guest tallieho Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 thanks for the report.read a report/statement somewhere that said part of this winterkill phenonmen is that theo2 in the spring is in such short supply that a quick change to the water [waves/wind] causes the o2 to be so dispersd that the fish are starved of it & die.
