1500 extended growth 7″-9″ walleye were stocked into Harpt Lake on 10/04/2018. Thank you to our hatchery R.J. Hilger and Sons for their donation of 25lbs of fathead minnows. The minnows were stocked as feed for all species of fish. Thank you also to the volunteers that helped to re-home our walleye! Dan Dufek March 26, 2016 – Five Lakes in Manitowoc County have been selected by the DNR for special regulations on panfish to be effective beginning April 1, 2016. Those lakes are Bullhead, Long, Pigeon, English and Harpt Lake. A total of 94 lakes across the state were identified by biologists and anglers as underperforming – that is the mean length of bluegill and crappie is less than desirable but growth potential is good. The goal is to determine the best regulation that will increase the average size of bluegill and crappie on the selected lakes. Ultimately, a single regulation will be chosen and used to address similar lakes not meeting Panfish management goals. The effectiveness of each regulation will be evaluated in 2021.October Walleye Stocking
