Michigan’s Department of Natural Resources completed its annual fish stocking program, releasing nearly 600,000 fish into state waters last fall. In total, over 9.7 million fish were stocked in ’24. In the fall, crews distributed seven species, including trout, salmon, walleye, and muskellunge, at 78 locations, totaling over 10 tons of fingerlings. The DNR says hatchery output varies by water supply and temperature, but the effort ensures stronger fish populations for Michigan anglers.
