Some specu- late the pump that provides oxygen to the fish while in transport had failed, leaving the trout in poor shape at stock- ing time. No information on the fish kill by MFW was available at the time of this deadline.

Anglers are patiently waiting for the trout fishing to open at Wallum Lake in Douglas next Saturday, April 13.
