Algal growth in Four Springs Lake
Prior to Easter IFS received a report from an angler regarding the increasing presence of algae at Four Springs Lake. Significant algal growth could be seen along the shoreline with the densest growth in the south west basin.
Our North West Fisheries Inspector visited the lake and took water samples for testing. Test results suggest the growth consist of two types of algae; green algae and blue green algae.
