Public invited to learn about Green Bay walleye and muskie management on March 3

Madison, Wis. — The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) invites the public to join DNR staff on Monday, March 3, either virtually or in person at the DNR’s Green Bay Service Center in Green Bay, Wis., for the eighth meeting in a nine-part series focused on fisheries management in northeast Wisconsin.

This meeting is part of a Spotlight Series that highlights various fisheries in northeast Wisconsin and will provide a brief overview of the history and management of walleye and muskellunge, followed by a more in-depth synopsis of new projects implemented in 2024 to help manage both species. The projects that will be discussed include a walleye reward tag study, in which over 4,500 walleyes were tagged in the Green Bay system in spring 2024, along with some new sampling and PIT tagging initiatives for muskellunge.
