Thanks for the follow up! I had just sent Chris a request for an update this morning. Then I got on here and saw you had gotten one. One step ahead of me as usual.
I was planning to go out there this weekend, but I may wait a bit longer. It sounds like the critters may still be very well fed. I am curious to see if most of the floaters look old though.
Still waiting for a reply from Chris about whether or not the fish had been checked for parasites or a pathogen (bacteria or virus). Also asked for his input on whether it was a lake-wide problem.
I have been holding off making my first major whack on the lake pending settling weather conditions and a more optimistic outlook for the fishing. So far not much cat action either...and the walleye fishing has been the worst in years. I'll probably start coming down after the middle of the month...both to check on white bass numbers at a couple of usual spots and to try for some post spawn walleyes...and of course some kitties.
