Wisconsin Lakes Hit By Severe Winter Kill
Sixty Wisconsin lakes, mainly in southern districts, suffered severe winter kills from oxygen deprivation under heavy ice and snow. Dr. Edward Schneberger notes thinning fish populations may aid regrowth as bass, bluegills, and wall eyes suffer most while bullheads and some minnows endure.
