Osakis & Long Prairie, Minnesota OsakisLake & LongOsakis Prairie, Minnesota Area Resorts | Fish | Golf | Bike | Bird | Shop | Dine | Camp Visitors Guide Check off your life list Amazing fishing stories Family fun time LakeOsakisMN.com 800.422.0785 • LongPrairie.org/tourism 320.732.2514 Road Trip The drive from Osakis to Long Prairie is beautiful no matter which route you choose. Take the western route around the lake on County Road 3 and turn east on 10 to hug the west and north shores of the lake all the way to Long Prairie. On the eastern side, follow scenic Lake Street Drive to County Road 37, connecting to 10 as you make your way to Long Prairie, or drive Highway 27 all the way to town. Any route you choose takes you through farm country and a horse-and-buggy Amish community that lives and works on the main roads and back lanes that Long Prairie connect the two towns. As you pass by their buggies on the road, you’ll notice that they don’t allow slow moving vehicle signs or reflective tape, but use small battery powered lamps at night. Keep an eye out for them when traveling after dark! You’ll easily recognize their farmsteads that dot the countryside with their white or red homes and barns. The Amish support their families through a variety of business endeavors both large and small: grain and dairy farming, carpentry, sawmills, furniture and basket-making, tarp repair, horse-shoeing, quilting, egg, and garden produce sales and many other activities. If a business sign dangles from a post at the end of their driveway, feel free to stop in to shop for quilts, baskets, cedar chests, furniture, farm-fresh eggs, and homemade jams and jellies.

    215 First Avenue South, Suite 104 Long Prairie, MN 56347 TODD SWCD Office: 320-732-2644 Website: www.co.todd.mn.us Winter 2016 NEWSLETTER Volume 6 Issue 1 DID YOU KNOW? On April 1, 2015, a local newspaper ran an article on the discovery of a dinosaur fossil confirmed by Tim Stieber, Director of Soil and Water Conservation District, which resulted in some inquiry at the office. In truth, very little evidence suggesting any existence of dinosaurs in Minnesota has been found. But in October 2015, paleontologists in the Mesabi Iron Range did unearth what they surmise to be the claw of a two legged carnivorous dinosaur similar to a Velociraptor, a member of the dromaeosaur family. This claw is only the third piece of dinosaur remains ever documented here in Minnesota. Conservation Opportunities Landowners Are Needed To Utilize Funding To Improve Their Land A Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) has been active in Todd County for over 50 years. For that entire period one goal of the SWCD has been to provide opportunities to private landowners to voluntarily apply conservation measures on their land. Todd SWCD’s current mission statement is “To Meet the Public’s Need by Protecting the Land and Safeguarding the Water”. This mission was developed by our board of supervisors elected by YOU the public with the intent of keeping the program focused on natural resource improvement and protection. Working to solve natural resource problems such as soil erosion or degraded water quality takes a long term vision (which the SWCD board provides), technical assistance (which the SWCD staff provide), and money (which is provided through grants).

Background and Project Description Lake Christina, a 3949-acre shallow lake in Douglas County in west-central Minnesota, is nationally recognized as a critical staging area for migrating canvasbacks, and also is a breeding location for a number of unique nongame bird species. Since the 1950s, the lake has alternated between ecological extremes, sometimes characterized by favorable conditions, and at other times of little use as waterfowl habitat.

Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Investigational Report 435, 1994 EVALUATION OF WALLEYE FINGERLING STOCKING IN THREE WEST-CENTRAL MINNESOTA LAKES1 Bradford G. Parsons Donald L. Pereira Paul D. Eiler IECEllE- Department of Natural Resources Section of Fisheries 500 I.afayette Road St. Paul, MN 55155 Abstract.--Three years of high density walleye fingerling stocking from 1986 through 1988 in two west central Minnesota lakes, Mary and Ida, yielded mixed results in improving the walleye fisheries. Lake Miltona was stocked at normal densities as a reference lake during the same years. Walleye from each stocking survived and appeared in the angler's catch from 1989 through 1991. Naturally hatched walleye of the 1986-1988 cohorts also appeared in the angler's catch. One of the six high density stockings established a strong year class that improved walleye fishing for two years in one lake. The walleye fishery in Lake Mary did not improve as a result of high density stocking. Stocked fish contributed to the walleye population and angler harvest. Gill net CPUE, however, did not improve over catches observed in earlier periods of no stocking. Angling success and walleye yields were lower three to five years after the high density stockings than in earlier years. An average of 1. 8 % of the stocked walleye were returned to the creel.
