DNR Bluegill Recovery Project

[fishnate]

Bluegill salvage dates were June 7 - 10 with a competition on the 9th. There were plenty of volunteers out there on the 9th. Unfortunately the wind was bad about 1:00 on Saturday and most of the day on Sunday. It'll be interesting to hear just how many they ended up with for the project. Unless I've misunderstood the DWR's intentions, I understand that many of these bluegill will stay at a local private pond for later restocking of both Pelican and Steinaker. Others are going to community ponds. Never heard about any being held in ponds on the W Front for restocking, but plans are constantly changing based on resources available and I'm sure they don't tell me everything either. I just know a bunch of the DWR folks and talk to them a lot.
