We released three sturgeon into Lake Michigan at the 2017 Sturgeonfest in Milwaukee.  It cost $10 to sponsor a lake sturgeon, so I sponsored three and let each one of my kids let them go into the Milwaukee Harbor.  Here's hoping they grow up big and strong, and then one day in the not too distant future, I can catch them in the Milwaukee Harbor or the Milwaukee River!

There are different types of sturgeon fish in Wisconsin, like the Lake Sturgeon we released.  There is also the shovel nose sturgeon, but that only resides in the Wisconsin River, not Lake Michigan.  The only kind of Sturgeon in Lake Michigan is the type we released.  

If you are interested in sturgeon fishing Wisconsin, the best places are in the Wisconsin River near the Wisconsin Dells, in the Lake Winnebago System, the Chippewa River, and the Menomonee River (which is the only one on this list that flows into Lake Michigan).
