Fish ponds are mostly empty at the fish hatchery near Jasper on Thursday, June 21, 2007. The state will truck and release about a million fish fingerlings into Steinhagen Lake near Jasper this week.


A carp eats floating vegetation in Steinhagen Lake. Steinhagen Lake near Jasper was refilled with water after it was drained to kill invasive plant species. During the draining period, many of the lake's fish also died.
