Species on record
Historical public plants establish recorded presence, not a guarantee of fish here today.
Trout stocking history
Michigan DNR sourceSite rows are combined by water, species, strain and event date. Private plants are excluded. Stocking dates are when fish went in, not when the record was discovered.
2 public plants
| Event date | Species / strain | Fish | Avg. length |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1982-06-02 | Rainbow trout Harrietta | 100 | 6.2 in (15.8 cm) |
| 1982-05-12 | Rainbow trout Harrietta | 1,100 | 7 in (17.9 cm) |
Small fish are future fishery history, not a claim of fishable stockers. Average length is count-weighted from available measurements. No per-record posting time is supplied by DNR. Steelhead classification uses verified strains; Michigan strain requires a verified Great Lakes tributary.
