Northwoods Muskies Inc., SGLA Stock Walleyes

Posted October 18, 2013

A partnership between the Shishebogama/Gunlock Lake Association and Northwoods Chapter of Muskies Inc. has resulted in more walleyes in a Northwoods lake.

The joint effort came to fruition when 3,375 walleyes ranging up to 12 inches in length were stocked in Lake Shishebogama on Friday, Oct. 11.

The water temperature was 58 degrees and the fingerlings swam off very well.

The stocking effort was approved by the Department of Natural Resources. DNR fisheries biologist John Kubisiak supervised the permit approval process.

Northwoods Muskies Inc. looks to work with other lake associations with muskie and walleye stocking programs. Interested lake associations can call Dean Zaumseil at 715-588-3248.

Northwoods Muskies Inc. also recently donated two PIT (passive integrated transponder) tag readers to the DNR for a muskie rearing project on Vilas and Oneida county lakes.

Northwoods Muskies Inc. will hold their November meeting Nov. 12 at Musky Shores Resort on Squirrel Lake. The December Christmas meeting will be held on Saturday, Dec. 7, at the Whitetail Inn in St. Germain. There will be a guest speaker and many raffle prizes given away. For information or tickets, call Dean Zaumseil at 715-588-3248. For more information on Northwoods Muskies Inc., visit https://www.northwoodsmuskies.com
