Lake Mingo, and the green gene project there, might be a waist of time and money. Several reports from fisherman who fish for Middle Fork River , for smallmouth bass, have been catching muskies below the spillway from Mingo.
One Angler, spotted several larger fish,in some of the deeper wholes, where they use to catch smallies. Other fisherman have caught muskies as small as 15-18 inches, which have become a local feast for the Coon Family.....
A rescue might be to late, as the Middle Fork will rise ,with the up and coming rain season. Maybe the IMA, should step in and provide Dave Whal,with a barrier net for the dam, before they stock Mingo, with more fingerlings.
