Evaluating Muskellunge Rearing and Stocking Strategies for Iowa Lakes and USACE Reservoirs
This project will evaluate Muskellunge stocking effectiveness across Iowa lakes and USACE reservoirs by PIT-tagging and acoustic/radio tracking to measure survival, movement, habitat use, and escapement. It compares traditional pond-reared fish to recirculating aquaculture system (RAS)–reared fish, tests stocking methods and potential escapement barriers, and conducts habitat and fisheries sur…
The primary purpose of this study is to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of Muskellunge stocking effectiveness and efficiency within Iowa's lakes and reservoirs, including those managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). This research directly addresses the USACE's interest in optimi…
