Thanks to the efforts of the Elkhart River Restoration Association (ERRA), the St. Joseph River isn’t the only viable walleye fishery in the neighborhood.
For the third time in five years, the group planted nearly 3,300 robust 6- to 8-inch ‘eyes in the Elkhart at two locations around Goshen recently. Some 2,100 went into the river between Goshen and Elkhart and another 1,150 between Goshen and New Paris, Ind.
The fish came from Gollon Bait out of Wisconsin, the same source used by the Indiana DNR and the Michiana Walleye Association for St. Joseph River stockings.
And based upon what biologists have seen from previous stockings, they should do quite well.
