Onsite Comments

Heavy Algae Bloom-100 (+-10) Northern Pike (4 to 6 lbs) (perhaps 3 year classes) D.O. depletion due to diurnal oxygen sags & temperature. Temperature extreme probably was also important. Oy NOP killed. Small population of Carp, goldfish, green sunfish & orange spotted sunfish remains in pond.
