Bring ON the Winterkill!!!
Seeing how expensive Rotenone is, and how the Province is not keen on treating certain lakes, perhaps a cheap way to ENHANCE Winterkill on some of our waters should be looked into. Mother Nature having done most of the work for us, if we could consume the rest of the oxygen in Edmonton Beach, Star, Hasse, etc, then restocking these trout lakes to make a return to the good old days would make sense. As I understand it, over a million dollars a lake would be needed for Rotenone. Surely, if we could collapse the lake under the ice when in late March the oxygen is dropping, the ground work could be set to return these lakes to quality fisheries that they once were.
