How's that coho stocking compared to previous years?  Seems like it used to be 2-million plus.  Is that right or is the 2+ number the total from all the states?  Old brain at work.

Your close Mike, it wasn't that long ago Michigan was up to 1.8 then cut to 1.5, then to 1.3. 

Good to see those Coho numbers going back up.

Thanks! That two million figure that was stuck in my head must be the lakewide total from what IL, IN and WI stocks their waters.

And a BIG THANKS to Michigan!  I've not seen the creel numbers but from what I gather cohos probably give Michigan people the least bang for their buck. Without their input, catching cohos would be incidental here in Indiana, most likely in Illinois and would certainly affect southern Wisconsin as well.
