For those who attended last year's LMPO meeting, a lengthy discussion was made about how we could increase the fish in the lake. President Karen Johnson had met with the DNR to discuss this issue. Several possibilities were brought up at that time and other avenues were offered. With the fishing season fast approaching, we thought this might be a good time to explore those avenues rather than wait.
In Karen Johnson's meeting with the local DNR they discussed perhaps a fish plant in Lake Michigamme. Anyway, one idea mentioned that the DNR recommended putting out wood cribs for fish cover and perhaps assist in maintaining/growing the forage base in Lake Michigamme. It is believed that if we can develop interest, we should put together a volunteer operation to consider what the DNR suggested. We need to clarify that the DNR provides the material for the crib building free; all we have to do is put together a group to take action.
Lee Holbrook has already offered to be on the committee, who else wants to join? Let us know your thoughts.
