Stocking history

Year	Species	Size	Number	Pounds
2022	Walleye	fry	100,000	0.9

Field note · Minnesota stocks by year, not by truck day: walleye fry go in within weeks of ice-out, fingerlings and yearlings mostly in fall, and stream trout in spring and fall. A row here means the fish went in during that year; DNR adds the year's rows after the fact, so the current year can look empty until winter.

Pumpkinseed	Special trap nets	0.67	2	0.11

Catch per net (CPUE) is the DNR survey's count per gill net or trap net set; higher means more of that species were sampled, not a fishing forecast. Top species per gear shown; where we have no verified common name for a DNR code, the code itself is shown.

Three 3/8" trap nets were set on May 6, 2014 and lifted May 7, 2014 to assess winterkill on Fawn Lake. There were 2 northern pike captured, both around 13". One pumpkinseed was sampled. Black crappies were sampled at rate of 116/ trap net. The size averaged around 4.5".
