    Leech Lake 5-year management plan finalized :happy1:

 :reporter; ....
A new five-year fisheries management plan for Leech Lake in northern Minnesota has been released by the DNR. The plan covers the period 2016-2020 and outlines management objectives for primary sportfish populations, as well as steps to reach these goals.

 :popcorn: .....
The document was developed by combining fisheries science with extensive public input. Management actions in this plan include habitat protection, special regulations, stocking of game fish (when specified population triggers are met), and continued support for double-crested cormorant control, as well as expanded sampling for other important species such as largemouthbass and tullibee, also called cisco . The plan aims to provide a quality sustainable sport fishery in Leech Lake for the long term.

The final plan, approved by :police: DNR Commissioner Tom Landwehr, can be viewed at: http://bit.ly/1R9Ird8. Electronic copies of the plan can also be obtained by emailing the Walker area fisheries office at walker.fisheries@state.mn.us.

Leech Lake covers 112,000 acres and is a popular year-around recreation destination. The lake is home to walleye, muskellunge, northern pike, yellow perch, largemouth bass and a number of other fish species sought by anglers.
