The water levels continue to drop at Cave Lake in an anticipation of renovation efforts on the dam in 2022.  NDOW conducted a fish salvage this and moved some very nice brown trout ranging in size from eight to 25 inches into Comins Lake.  Cave Lake is closed to fishing due to shorelines that are very soft and dangerous due to the complete saturation of the soil as the lake is drained.  By draining the lake it should shave a couple of years off the re-building of the dam and cut costs tremendously.  It will also make the project much safer for those performing the work.
