Details 

The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) will host a public meeting to discuss a proposed walleye regulation change for Crescent Lake in Oneida County. This meeting was requested in response to a public notice published on Feb. 18, 2025.

This proposed regulation change comes after the Crescent Lake rehabilitation partner group detected a strong year class of age-1 walleye during the fall of 2024. Under the current regulation, juvenile individuals are more likely to be exploited. The goal of this regulation is to minimize the harvest of juvenile walleye and protect the current spawning adult population. 

The proposed regulation would take effect on Saturday, May 3, 2025, if the public is in favor.
