Location: Green Bay, WI | There were nearly 1200 fish stocked in total, although I am not certain of the numbers into each lake. You might want to call David Rowe for that, as he's the biologist in charge. Shane Mason might be able to help you as well. But I haven't heard an estimate on how many they think will reach sexual maturity--but I do know that the size limit on those three lakes will be increased to 50", if it isn't there already. I am not familiar with the lakes, so Shane (or David Rowe) can answer that better than I.
As to the issue of genetic diversity, I believe that I was told that they intend to stock more fish into these lakes in the future. In other words, I don't believe these fish are all that will be stocked. Of course given the problems they had getting these...one never knows.
