Outdoor notes from Hartwick to Lake Macbride fishing launches
The piece discusses clear water at Hartwick and Delhi lakes, crappies pushing bass from spawning beds, and carp driven from beds. It promotes tiny roadside parks on Highway 30, urges patrols to keep parks free of squatters, and notes rising outdoor recreation, with anglers awaiting the bass season opening and Lake Macbride becoming a fishing draw. It cites 88 million walleyed pike hatched in Iowa hatcheries, limits on fry growth, and Minnesota anglers reporting poor fishing due to late, cold spring.
