2015 Fall Walleye Index Netting

Post by Mike Schmuck » Tue Sep 08, 2015 7:47 am

We are looking for volunteers to assist with our Fall Walleye Index Netting on 3 lakes this fall. Billy Clapp will be conducted Oct. 19 and possibly 20. Moses Lake will be conducted Oct. 21-23. Potholes will be conducted Oct. 26-27.

This sampling involves the use of gill nets to evaluate the walleye populations on three fisheries in central Washington.

Our 2014 FWIN Report can be found here. http://wdfw.wa.gov/publications/01717/wdfw01717.pdf

You can earn Master Hunter hours by volunteering on this project.

You will get fishy so wear appropriate clothing.

If you have questions, or want to volunteer please contact me via phone. I will likely NOT be checking back on this thread very often.

Thanks.

He usually posts here when its ready.

It should show up in this list when they have it ready. Not there yet that I could see.

Thanks Larry. I hadn't been able to find the 2015 report myself, and it is usually available by now. But I'd not come across that link, and have since bookmarked it. Very handy!

Hey guys, the 2015 report had a longer-than-average review time but should be posted soon.

in the meantime, if anyone would like a copy please email me at Michael.Schmuck@dfw.wa.gov and I will send you a copy.
