Over the past several years, BLHA has been striving to improve the balance of fish species in our lake. As reported previously, there is an over population of bass and the consensus is to decrease the current level. This over population results in an increasing number of smaller bass with an insufficient food supply. As in past years, we are working with our local (members) anglers to catch and remove any bass under 15". In addition, we have taken steps to remove bass by alternative means. On May 4, our lake management company, Foster Pond and Lake Pond Management, removed 225 bass. Our goal this year is to remove in excess of 1,500 bass.

With the bass over population, the Board's recommendation is to defer any fish stocking activities this year. If we are successful in meeting our goals, we will plan to do stocking next year. Presently our stocking plan will include bluegills and grass carp.
