Also the fresh water deposits all type of nutrients and vegetation into the lake which provides habitat and food for small bait fish; which the trout and reds Feed on. So flushing lake p is actually not a horrible thing. Bc the following year will b awesome!
Like your post! We seem to come from the same school of thought. Many times I've caught trout, and nice ones at that, with Crypremort Point showing 3-4ppm. I have always thought the trout will stay in the area if there is a salinity zone near the bottom w/ fresh water on top. Many areas in VB with coves and points will provide an area with trapped, higher level salinities; the Cove and Mud point are good examples.
