I know that they had good netting but if the water dropped a ton it could have had a big die off.
I had a personal report from a kayaker who fished it several times toward the end of the open water season. For a while he was getting lots of wipers, but then it dropped way off and the water was only about 12 to 14 feet deep right off the dam. Don't know how low it actually got, but someone catching a few walleyes under the ice is probably an anomaly...with only a few fish being concentrated in a smaller area...and very competitive for the small amount of food available. Once the lake fills a bit the remaining few fish will be widely scattered and I doubt anyone will be doing very well. Hope I am wrong.
