The Wisconsin DNR will host a public informational meeting to discuss a walleye rehabilitation effort on Crescent Lake in Oneida County.

Until recently, Crescent Lake supported a strong, naturally reproducing walleye population. However, levels of natural walleye reproduction and recruitment have declined over time, and there are no simple answers explaining the cause.

The rehabilitation effort, a partnership with the DNR, Sakaogon Chippewa Community (Mole Lake) and Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife Commission, aims to restore natural walleye reproduction and recruitment on Crescent Lake through management strategies, such as stocking efforts, stakeholder engagement, habitat assessment and surveys.

Members of the public are strongly encouraged to RSVP or pre-register.

Join this meeting on Zoom.
