January Ice Fishing Weekend on Lake Wassookeag![]() While ice fishing in six feet of water, Luke Palmer caught four normal cusk. Around midnight, fishing on bottom with small live bait known as shiner, Luke bagged "a creature from the deep". The creature caught was 16" long with four legs and a tail like an eel. The body was covered with a clear sticky gue and behind each gill was a red sack. Inside the mouth we observed two rows of tiny sharp teeth! Yes, this fish story is true!
What effect this will have on the lake for the long term, we do not know. |
