Echo Lake Stocked With Prized Trout for Opening Day Saturday
Howell residents are in for a real treat this year as their own Echo Lake was selected for a special trout stocking. According to the DEP’s press release, Echo Lake will be stocked as a “broodstock” water body which means larger trout up to 24 inches will be added in hopes of starting a healthy trout breeding lake. The lake will receive approximately 400 trout with 30 breeder trout between the size of 17- to 24-inches, according to the press release. The remaining trout will be smaller with an average size of 10 inches.
