Do you have an opinion about how Lake of the Woods is being managed? Is the season too long? Are anglers keeping too many small fish? Is there too much winter fishing pressure? Should limits be reduced?
Well, here’s a chance to give your 2 cents’ worth.

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is asking people interested in Lake of the Woods fisheries management to share their views about future management of the big lake.

As I reported in late November, the DNR is gearing up to draft a new five-year management plan that will guide fisheries management on Lake of the Woods from 2024 to 2029.

The Lake of the Woods fisheries management plan was last updated in 2018 with assistance from a 14-member Lake of the Woods Fisheries Input Group. In a news release, the DNR said it will be important for the update to reflect public values and perspectives on how the lake should be managed.
