Copper Penny Cover

With approval from the CDC Board, the Fish & Wildlife Committee added a bit of cover into Copper Penny Lake. Quite a bit of the standing timber has been disappearing over the years in Copper Penny mostly due to high winds. We added four tree limbs each about twenty feet long into the deepest part of the lake. They were anchored with heavy cinder blocks and basically all dropped in the same location. Thanks goes out to Gale Mathison for taking the time out of his day to help me yesterday.

Article - Benefits of Catch & Release

"Thanks" to one of our residents for sending me this website. I think it should be interesting reading for anyone who likes to fish. It's mostly about a fishing catch and release study right here in Nebraska.
