Flathead stocked in 1998 sampled in Illinois’ Canton Lake
Published: , in Outdoor News
A tagged flathead catfish captured by DNR biologists last year in Canton Lake turned out to be an original fish taken from the Illinois River and stocked in the 250-acre lake in December 1998.
“That would make this fish at least 29 years old – if it was a 2-year-old at stocking,” DNR noted in its most recent report on Canton, one of the top catfish lakes in the state.
