The Michigan Department of Natural Resources has reared fish at their fish hatcheries for over 100 years, and they are encouraging the public to pay one a visit over the summer. The six state hatcheries that are located throughout Michigan rear and stock fish for several reasons. Some of those reasons are to restore ecosystem balance, provide a more diverse fishing opportunity, rehabilitate depressed fish populations, and more. DNR's fish production manager Ed Eisch said, “Over the course of a typical year the DNR will stock roughly 26 million fish - many courtesy of its hatcheries. Each of our facilities works hard to produce several different species of fish and we love having visitors come and see directly how we do that work." This year, the DNR launched a Hatchery Passport Program that will reward visitors to all six of the state's fish hatcheries and two select egg-take weir facilities with a collectible sticker that represents each location.

Participants of the Michigan DNR's new Hatchery Passport Program can start by obtaining the official passport document and then make plans to visit all eight participating locations to collect each location's unique sticker.
