From Bill Heins:

The loss of shoreline for us this year was dramatic, especially on the west shore due to high water & wave action this spring.  I have lost shoreline on my lake front right up to the "ice ridge"  by my dock.  One of the things that we can do to stabilize our shoreline is with native wildflowers, grasses & sedges.  This is an effective step to prevent erosion.  I have come across a great Wisconsin company that I personally have used to plant native wildflowers & grasses on my mound system.
Among the many seed mixes & plants that they offer, one is designed for erosion control using native wildflowers & grasses.  These mixes have been specifically designed to provide rapid vegetative cover & long term soil stabilization.  These mixes provide quick cover in combination with deep-rooted perennials to hold the soil for decades to come.    I would recommend that you order their catalog.  The name of the company is Prairie Nursery in Westfield, WI..  You can call them at 1-800-476-9453 or go online www.prairienursery.com to request their catalog.

 
Electro Shocking Survey PDF Print E-mail

I was notified by Mark Luehring a fish biologist for the Great Lakes Indian Fish & Wildlife Commission that they will be doing an electro-shocking survey on Harris Lake the week of September 14th, with a tentative scheduled date of Sept. 16th.  The purpose of the survey is to determine the number of Juvenile walleyes and the overall status of "Year Class Walleyes" in Harris Lake.  They will work at night in large flat-bottom boats with bright flood lights aimed at the water.  The front of the boat will have boom arms with electro-shocking devices. The workers will net the fish, measure & weigh them.  They may fin clip the fish prior to releasing them alive back into the water.
Results of their work will be available at www.glifwc.org, at a later date or you may call Mark Luehring at 715-685-2133 for more information.
Because Harris Lake is one of the lakes that the "Bad River" tribe spear in the spring, treaty rights
require that the GLIFW commission monitor the overall impact of spearing on the numbers of walleyes in our lake.
