Walleye Stocking |
| On a Sunday in December we stocked
370 lbs of fingerlings! They averaged about 10 fish
per lb or 3,700 fish!
At a cost of $10.00 per pound this comes to $3,700.
$2,000 was paid by LLA and a 70% match of $1,700 from
the Viking Sportsmen who received funds from club fundraisers,
as well as donations from the Alex Hospitality Assoc,
Tastefully Simple, Douglas Machine, and others that
were earmarked specifically for the fish stocking program
in Douglas County.

2008
Walleye Stocking |
On Saturday December 13, 2008 the LLA stocked Lobster
Lake with 600 pounds of walleyes.
400 pounds were paid for out of the LLA walleye stocking
fund, member dues and 200 pounds were paid for with
money from the Alexandria Hospitality Funds. A total
of 22,200 four-six inch walleyes were stocked.
The walleyes arrived with great support from LLA
and the Viking Sportsman, along with new matching
funds from the Alexandria Hospitality Association.
Some people might wonder who the Alexandria Hospitality
Association is. When people stay in Alexandria motels
they pay a motel tax that must be spent promoting
the area’s tourist industries. What a great way to
promote Alexandria; to have people come to Alexandria
and fish walleyes. This organization provided $2,000.00
in matching funds for the purchase of walleye fingerlings.
We look forward to seeing you on the ice this year,
and as always we will be looking for more walleye
fund donations for 2010. Thanks for all your past
support.
