The Salmon are Running Again in Lake Sunapee

The Salmon are Running Again in Lake Sunapee

After about a 5 year drought the smelt, (food chain), are running again in Lake Sunapee and so are the Salmon. Some say that the Rock Bass, not a native fish, but a predator fish in the food chain, was responsible for the diminution of the smelt.  Good fishin' again. The original of this map is available on the internet, but is also contains a copyright.  I have updated the original for my own personal use.
