Big fish coming to West Lake Okoboji with paddlefish reintroduction

While he was speaking at the Okoboji Blue Water Festival on Aug. 10, Iowa DNR fisheries biologist Mike Hawkins gave an update on lake bank erosion and restoration that is needed after flooding in Iowa earlier this summer.
In addition, Hawkins’ announcement toward the end of his presentation also included information on the reintroduction of a native species.
“We’ve talked with a few groups in the area about the reintroduction of paddlefish to the Iowa Great Lakes,” Hawkins said.
