  BULLETINS

12-26-2011 - The Horsehead Lake Commissioners wish everyone a very Happy New Year!  While ice fishing, urge everyone to pick up their trash and remove from ice surface. What's left behind, becomes part of the lake bottom.

8-20-20-11 - Eighteen District owners were present at the Annual Meeting to hear John Kubisiak, DNR fish biologist, discuss our current fish survey report, in a very interesting and informative presentation. He is working on a possible 1-2 year introduction of 4" Bass transfers to help our fishery. One reason we have so few Bass and so many Yellow Perch, Bluegill, Crappie, and Pumpkinseed, is because the ones we have in abundance are more hardy and are better able to survive extreme winter conditions. Our aerator, while it won't altogether prevent fish kills, dramatically increases the number of fish that survive. When Bass are re-introduced to our lake, they will do a better job of keeping the more numerous fish in check and will build our game fish stock. For a lake our size, the Northern population is quite large.

4-4-2011 - See latest 2010 DNR fish study preliminary report just out from John Kubisiak, fish biologist in Rhinelander. [click on "Latest Fish Survey Report" below] There's a nice description of the fish along with recommendations for stocking Largemouth Bass and a proposal for limiting larger Northern Pike to increase the sizes of game fish.
