Learn about fisheries management at DNR meetings in Shawano

Shawano will serve as a host site for two informational meetings to educate anglers on various fisheries management and habitat topics. Several meetings will be held across northeast Wisconsin, according to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR). The meetings are part of a spotlight series highlighting various fisheries in Green Bay, the Winnebago System and inland waters in northeast Wisconsin. Over the next few months, the sessions will be held both in person and virtually via Microsoft Teams from 6-8 p.m., giving the public a chance to meet and learn from their local DNR fishery resource specialists. Northeast Wisconsin Trout Habitat Management will be presented by Jonathan Pyatskowit, DNR fisheries habitat specialist, and Kyle Kossel, DNR habitat technician. The meeting will be held Jan. 28 in the large group instruction room at Shawano Community Middle School, 1050 S. Union St. Shawano Lake Walleye Movement and Survey Results of 2024 Area Surveys will be presented by Elliot Hoffman, DNR senior fisheries biologist, on Feb. 11. This will be held in the same room at the middle school. Information on these and other meetings, including Microsoft Teams login details, can be found at https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/calendar.
