Does the water-quality grade tell me how Youngs Lake Waupaca Co fishes?

A DNR fisheries survey reports fish abundance and catch rates, not a water-quality grade.

Before you eat what you catch

A water-quality grade is not a consumption advisory. Mercury and PCB advice for Wisconsin waters comes from WI DNR/DHS, and it is issued per species and per size class — a lake can grade well and still carry a meal limit on larger predator fish.
