Wow, makes you wonder what they're feeding on at the bottom of that lake!

Very strange!
Maybe it ate a bunch of dollar-store glow bracelets that kids took camping up on Great Slave?

Actually I would bet that the "slurpee" theory is not too far off the mark. When I was in the marine bio program we used to feed lobster a variety of coloured diets. The food pigment is where lobsters get their colour from in their hard chitonous exterior. Blue food yields blue lobsters and no pigment you get the famous transparent lobsters (look it up... Not kidding).
Anyways you will notice that the green appears to be concentrated in the cartilaginous areas like the jaw. A harder tissue somewhat like chitin. Probably dined on some of the very common glow ice fishing offerings or someone's "pimped" up lure and bingo.
Must admit.... That is a lot of green for the above theory but who knows how concentrated that stuff is.
Just my theory..... Fallback is the slurpee.
