Stocking history

Year	Species	Size	Number	Pounds
2025	Largemouth Bass¹	adults	400	173.9
2023	Walleye¹	fry	167,000	1.4
2023	Yellow Perch¹	adults	4,000	200.0

¹ fish purchased and stocked by private citizens and sporting groups.

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.

Species	Gear	Catch per net	Total catch	Avg lb
Black bullhead	Standard trap nets	508.86	3,562	0.06
Brown bullhead	Standard trap nets	8.00	56	0.08
Bluegill	Standard trap nets	1.71	12	0.33

Brown bullhead	Standard gill nets	0.50	2	0.05

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.

GAMEFISH POPULATIONS ARE ALMOST NON-EXISTENT, BULLHEAD (SPP.) MAKE UP THE MAJORITY OF THE CATCH WITH NUMBERS WELL OVER THE STATE AND LOCAL MEDIANS
