Trout Stocking location in Northern Indiana

Bookmark and Share

Goose Pond manager honored

Goose Pond Fish and Wildlife Area property manager Brad Feaster received the Sassafras Audubon Society’s Don Whitehead Conservationist of the Year award for major contributions to a current conservation cause.

Feaster was recognized for his policies and work in managing the property’s wetlands to maintain the current habitat vital for many species of resident and migratory birds. One of the many tasks he and his crew work on is controlling invasive species such as phragmites and cottonwood trees.

Feaster was instrumental in helping organize the Friends of Goose Pond in support of the goals of wildlife conservation and habitat restoration at the property through environmental education, scientific research, and recreational activities and programs. The friends group has worked with the SAS to provide community days to highlight Goose Pond and its activities. He also helped to stage the two-day Marsh Madness festival, highlighting Greene County destinations, including Goose Pond.

Additional trout releases up north

Additional trout will be stocked in four northern Indiana streams by the Indiana Division of Fish and Wildlife before Memorial Day weekend.

The Pigeon River (Steuben and LaGrange counties) will be stocked at County Road 175 North and at County Line Road. Turkey Creek (LaGrange County) will be stocked at County Road 150 North. These stream crossings are located on the Pigeon River Fish and Wildlife Area. The trout stockings schedules for the Little Elkhart River (Elkhart County) will take place at the Bonneyville Mill County Park. The Little Kankakee River (LaPorte County) will be stocked with additional trout at County Road 100 South.

Although these stream sites will be the only areas to receive additional trout in May, fish from the initial releases in late April are still available in most of northern Indiana’s trout streams. Although anglers fishing the more remote areas continue to report good catches, the DNR’s practice of providing additional stockings at a few sites, which began in 1990, provides a bonus and extends trout-fishing opportunities.

Division of Fish and Wildlife honors top employees

The DNR's Division of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) 2009 employees of the year, their residence and work site are:

--Biologist of the Year, Michael Schoof, Sullivan (Kankakee Fish and Wildlife Area);
--Secretary of the Year, Pamela Rausch, Winamac (Winamac FWA);
--Field Technician of the Year, Cindy Devine, Howe (Curtis Creek Trout Rearing Station);
--Program Manager of the Year, Catherine Gremillion-Smith, Camby (Wildlife Diversity Section, lives in Camby);
--Team of the Year, the State Fish Hatchery program.

Schoof , assistant property manager at Kankakee, has been doing property manager duties for well over two years because of the property manager’s health challenges.

Rausch’s award is for outstanding customer service.

Devine had a direct hand in producing and stocking more than 1.65 million catchable rainbow and brown trout, weighing in excess of 825,000 pounds, during 30-plus years of service.

Gremillion-Smith has been the primary protector and promoter of the Nongame Fund and was the main force within the DFW in the nationwide effort to get new funding for nongame wildlife that resulted in federal appropriations to Indiana of about $1 million annually. She has been instrumental and creative in acquiring public lands, including Goose Pond, Tern Bar Slough, and additions to Pisgah Marsh.

The State Fish Hatchery program team’s work resulted in the continuation of Indiana’s premier summer-run Skamania steelhead program for Lake Michigan and its tributary streams, including the St. Joseph River program. This group includes team leader Randy Lang (Zionsville), along with Bodine Hatchery team members Dave Meuninck (Mishawaka), Bob Bell (Mishawaka), Mark Ciesielski (South Bend) and Kyle Banks (Mishawaka); Mixsawbah Hatchery members Tom Schwartz (LaPorte), Rob Ackerson (New Carlisle), Tim Prowant (Walkerton) and Larry Robertson (South Bend); and Lake Michigan Office team members Brian Breidert (Rolling Prairie), Janel Palla (Wanatah), Randy Brindza (Westville), Ben Rhoda (Westville).

About Fish and Wildlife Management in Indiana

Fish and wildlife management and public access are funded by fishing and hunting license revenue and also through the Sport Fish and Wildlife Restoration Programs administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. These programs collect excise taxes on sporting arms and ammunition, archery equipment, fishing equipment, and motor boat fuels. The money is distributed among state fish and wildlife agencies based on land size and the number of licensed anglers and hunters in each state.
