The DEC was in there shocking 'em yesterday (Thursday).  They took like 25 out and moved them over to the other side of the lake after recording lenght and weight, and tagging them.  Got nice video up on UTUBE.

Cool video. Looks like a Eastern European snagging drive in the Lake Ontario tribs in the fall!

When you say move them, do you mean the swamp or the actual lake?  Also, was there a high pitch humming sound or was it the voices in my head again?

They are doing a population estiment. All the fish they samples (750ish) were tagged with jaw tags. The fish are then released at the boat launch via hatchery truck so they disperse in the lake. They are then going to electro shock the lake with boats before the season starts to try and sample as many walleye as they can. Based on the total amount of walleye they sample in the lake and how many of those are of the 750 that got tagged they can figure out about how many walleye are in the lake.

Hey BSMASTER, no those were not the "voices" again you were hearing.  The humming is actually that shocking tool he has.  Someone else answered correctly on where they released them....it was on the North end of the lake.

Anyone ever fish the swamp there, where the inlet ends?  Some of them fish have had to made the jump over and not sure if anything else in there?

Pike make it in there for sure.  I always assumed they made it out before it got too hot but no proof of that.  Probably more accurate is that the snappers and the eagles get a tasty dinner.  Swamp is taylor made for Yak fisherman.
