DNR stocking walleye fry in Duck Pond?

Not around WC MN. Too bad we can't pipe some of the water your way.

guy100... if you go to the MN DNR home HSOforum and click on "publications" towards the bottom. Then look for #159, I believe it may be listed under 'special reports'.

Its some research that was done comparing basically three ponds. One was stocked with walleye fry, one with advanced walleyes, and one was not stocked at all. They then looked at and determined the walleyes effect on invertebrates levels, fathead populations, and water turbidity.

They did 'gut checks' and all sorts of tests on the walleyes to see what they were eating.

Its a good report, and really sheds some light on walleyes and their influence on fatheads as well as invertebrates and water clarity.

I think you will be surprised as to what you will find out.

The DNR does their job, its unfortunate they get ridiculed as much as they do. We as citizens need to assist them and offer suggestions, not demean and ridicule their every move.

Thats my opinion, and its not in response to anything I have read on this forum, so please no one take offense. Its just my view.
