growth rates???

Post by MuskyDan »

If a fish is planted at 11"es, what kind of time frame does it take to get it to 30"es in a lake like say Sanford?

Thanks,

30" takes three years in most places, sometimes longer.

For instance the fish in Sanford stocked in 2007 should be in the mid 20's this year. However, Wixom was stocked in 2006 so it wouldn't be unexpected to see fish 30-34" in Sanford this year.
Self interest is for the past, common interest is for the future.

I know a documented CPR 31" fish taken last Aug 2008 in Hamlin Lake. 10" fish were stocked 2005, 2006, and 2008.
