[QUOTE="dean nelson, post: 97499, member: 1305"] I know when I took a corse in college on devils lake (yes that was a rell thing and a full semester at that) that pre 93 salt content was so high on the east end that most fish could not successfully spawn on that end. Over many years as new water would come in from the north west it would slowly move that way evaporating as it went thus becoming salter as it moved east. With new water coming in at such a high rate and the big flush that happend when stump filled it's greatly reduced the salt levels.
