Beginning in 2020, the Indiana DNR plans to increase Chinook salmon stocking by 150,000 fish in Indiana’s Lake Michigan waters. The new, interim plan comes in response to a recent Lake Michigan Committee (LMC) recommendation to increase lakewide stocking levels. The increase in stocking is made possible through the increase in stocking quota and additional reductions to stocking of steelhead and Coho salmon. Fall fingerling Skamania steelhead will be discontinued on the Little Calumet River and substantial cuts to fall fingerling Coho stockings will be replaced with fewer, but larger, spring Coho yearlings. Similar changes on the St. Joseph River enacted in 2015 have proven extremely successful at increasing salmon returns.
