And I haven't seen any floating algae mats, or any evidence of blue green anywhere I've travelled. And not one floating whitefish either. Not too many years ago I had witnessed hundreds of them by this time. We have a private launch, and I've noticed the water level receding every time I launch. The hot dry summer is taking its' toll.
The other good news is that the walleye fishing is as hot now as any other time I've been out this year!

Nice! Thanks Jim. So not all gloom and doom out there. I wonder if the Pigeon Lake Watershed Association is making an impact:

Interesting story as well on how the lake was named.
