LARGE POPULATION OF PUMPKINSEED AND BLUEGILL WITH THEIR SIZE RANGING WELL OVER BOTH THE STATE AND LOCAL MEDIANS. ALSO THE ROCK BASS POPULATION IS EQUAL TO THAT OF THE LOCAL MEAN BUT THEIR SIZE WAS WELL OVER THE STATE AND LOCAL MEDIANS. PERCH POPU- LATION MAY BE LOW DUE TO PREDATION FROM NORTHERN PIKE. NORTHERN PIKE WERE FEEDING ON SMALL BLUEGILL AND PUMPKINSEEDS. BULLHEAD AND SUCKER POPULATIONS ARE NORMAL WITH STATE AND LOCAL CONCENTRATIONS. LARGEMOUTH BASS POPUALTION COULD NOT BE DETERMINED BECAUSE NO SAMPLES WERE TAKEN.
