  • Rainy Lake Draft Fisheries Management Plan, 2026 - 2036

    Please take this opportunity to review and provide your input on the draft Rainy Lake fisheries management plan, posted on the DNR’s Rainy Lake website. Following this public review period, the DNR will revise the plan to address input received and release a final version of the plan.

    The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) produces management plans for many of the resources it manages, including the state’s ten-largest lakes. Rainy Lake is one of these large lakes, with one fourth lying in Minnesota. When finalized, this plan will guide fisheries management on Rainy Lake from 2026 - 2036. The plan’s goals, objectives, and strategies will help determine the allocation of staff and fiscal resources to protect and enhance the fish community.

    The questionnaire and public comment period will be open until March 31.
