Cedar River Maintenance
The Cedar River is the main coldwater fishery that the LPM chapter protects. We will hold work days throughout the year to protect this cold water fishery.
2021 Cedar River Census
Our partners, Little Forks Conservancy, helped the Michigan DNR with a Fish Survey of the Cedar River in 2021. Watch the video for more information.
In 2025, the chapter took on river restoration work, including adding woody structure to the fish habitat on the Martuch property on the Cedar River.
The habitat improvement project also included removing limbs when necessary to improve the river structure.
Leon P. Martuch Property
Leon P. Martuch was important to the creation of this chapter and Michigan Trout Unlimited. In honor of his work, the chapter purchased a plot of land in 1980 and dedicated it to him.
The west branch of the Cedar River flows through the middle of the property. The property allows the chapter to conduct trout research and gather river health information.
The property allows public access to the Cedar River to enjoy hiking, fishing, and enjoyment in the outdoors.
