Ludington Regional Fishery Workshop

January 9, 2016

8:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m.

West Shore Community College
Administration and Conference Building
3000 North Stiles Road—Scottville, MI 49454


The Lake Michigan fishery has been changing dramatically in recent years. The annual Ludington Regional Fishery Workshop features presentations by scientists who work to understand how ecosystem changes affect salmon and trout.

This year’s workshop will feature a presentation on the Great Lakes Mass Marking Program from the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. Mass marking of stocked Chinook salmon and lake trout is now providing a greater understanding of when and where stocked and wild fish contribute to fisheries.

A unique feature of this year’s workshop will be a facilitated discussion led by Michigan Department of Natural Resources. The discussion will utilize an audience response system and Q & A to help fishery managers understand what charter captains, anglers, and conservationists would like to see in a Lake Michigan Management Plan.
