For the second consecutive year the Lac du Flambeau (LdF) tribe has indicated to the Wisconsin DNR that members intend to harvest walleyes from Oneida County’s Minocqua chain of lakes during the 2024 spearing season.
For nearly a decade the primarily stocked fishery has been catch-and-release only for walleyes as a rehab project was under way to study natural recruitment. It also was to allow time for the overall adult population to grow to more than three walleyes per acre on the chain that includes Minocqua, Lake Tomahawk, Little Lake Tomahawk, Mid and Kawaguesaga.
