The Conservation Area Manager for hartell returned my phone call this morning. I inquired about the Blue Gill spawn, lake depth, and floatation requirements for float tubes.
The gill are off their beds but he thinks there is a minor second spawn starting.
The Lakes are bowl shaped with the deep water toward the dam end of the lakes. (That's where the dam fish are) Sorry I couldn't resist.
He said he would fax me back a copy of the lake maps with brush piles marked. Hopfully my coworkers will cooperate and pull it from the fax machine and save it for me.
He said thereis some vegitation on the lakes that he sprayed a couple of days ago should be almost gone but we might have to work around it.
Floatation devices are not require for float tube users only if you want to use the supplied boats you must have your own life jacket.
Looks like we have four of us fishing Saturday morning. I could see a trend here!

Ok, Saturday will work for me too. Yipee!!!! I've wanted to try Hartell for a while now!

I'll be bringing my canoe. If I leave my house at 4:30 that should get me there about 5:45. That's my plan.

I'm going to check with MOturkE too, to see if he can come.

I always wear my pfd. And I store it in the canoe so I shouldn't forget it.
