MADISON, Wis.?? The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is hosting a public meeting to gather feedback on the future management of salmon and trout on Lake Michigan.

DNR staff will present the latest Lake Michigan survey information and stakeholders will be able to share ideas and input on future fisheries management initiatives.

?We have been working very closely with critical stakeholders over the last 10 years to respond to both the science and social preferences that drive this excellent fishery,? said Bradley Eggold, DNR Great Lakes District Fisheries Supervisor. ?At this meeting, we will begin discussions on the most recent survey information, answer questions and gather input and comments that will ultimately culminate in a plan for 2023 and beyond.?
