(DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES) â The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) will hold a preliminary public hearing on a statement of scope that will allow the DNR to begin work on an emergency rule relating to Lake Michigan whitefish management, with a focus on Green Bay.
Models indicate that whitefish populations have increased in Green Bay and additional harvest may aid businesses that are recovering from the impacts of the COVID-19 public health emergency. Improved reporting requirements in Green Bay may also provide valuable data for managing the overall population of whitefish in Lake Michigan, and for monitoring bycatch of non-target species while fishing for whitefish. The scope statement outlines topics for possible rules, such as whitefish harvest allocations, electronic harvest reporting and gear restrictions.
