Lake Hiawatha

Post by Mister Mullet »

What's the scoop on Lake Hiawatha? Any fish in it? Can you use a boat and motor? A friend is looking at a house there and isn't interested if there are no fish.

Can't speak to the fishing or boating regs, but quick search makes it look like the lake's relatively healthy for the area / any fish caught from it should be fairly safe to eat for what it's worth. Links are pretty useful for comparing to other local bodies of water as well... some others also pretty healthy but not all.
