I read they had been stocked and tried to find one several years ago. No luck. I do think they would live there, we fish several holes that are 10-15' deep. And there are are enough small fish for them to eat.
You are pretty much limited when you can fish the lake. In summer the moss grows and chokes it. We use a 10' rowboat for the family. One year we were there early and in the big open part we almost played Titanic with the remaining ice floes. We've had great days in Oct and Nov if the sun is warm. The moss has died back and the electric motor takes us everywhere. It's fun trolling for the little bass or twitching topwaters. When my boy was about 5 he caught an 11.875" bass but no matter how much we pulled and stretched, we couldn't make it legal. That's still the biggest we've seen, although I heard some nice ones were taken out several years ago.
It's also fun to stop by there in the dead of winter and walk down to the hot spring inlet and catch bluegill and some perch.
Carey is the closest place for us to go to catch anything besides trout trout trout.
