Wisconsin DNR fisheries survey
Structured LakeList extraction from the 2025 DNR fisheries survey. Population estimates, density, and catch-rate indices use different units, methods, and scopes, so each value is presented in its original form rather than normalized against a different measure.
The second year of Musser Flowage muskellunge fyke-netting produced an adult estimate of 218 fish, but the estimate was too imprecise for Wisconsin DNR to use in setting safe tribal harvest limits. The 2025 survey captured 36 muskellunge at 0.50 fish per net-night; measured fish averaged 32.2 inches and reached 42.1 inches.
