With snow finally melting away people are finding an unwelcome surprise on the shores of Lake Winnipeg.
Zebra mussels have been found scattered on the beach of Victoria Beach located on the southeastern shores of the lake.
Zebra mussels have can make a beach smell like rotting fish and can cut bare feet because they are very sharp.
While residents are now worried they will keep them from enjoying the lake, the province is saying mussels found this time of year are from last year and are just becoming visible because of the melting snow.
