Catch per net (CPUE) is the DNR survey's count per gill net or trap net set; higher means more of that species were sampled, not a fishing forecast. Top species per gear shown; where we have no verified common name for a DNR code, the code itself is shown.
WAE GILLNET CATCHES WERE HIGHER THAN STATEWIDE MEDIAN NUMBER. AVERAGE SIZE OF NETTED WAE WAS GOOD, ABOUT 1.7 LBS. NOP NUMBERS WERE QUITE HIGH, ALMOST FIVE TIMES STATE MEDIAN. THOUGH THERE WERE MANY SMALL NORTHERNS, AVERAGE WEIGHT WAS ABOVE STATE AVERAGE. NUMBER OF NOP WAS SIMILAR TO 1982 ASSESSMENT AND HIGHER THAN IN 1974 AND 1977 NETTING. YEP WERE ABUNDANT, ABOUT THREE TIMES STATE MEDIAN NUMBER. BLG WERE ABUNDANT BUT SMALL. LMB CATCH IN TRAPNETS WAS WELL ABOVE THE STATE AVERAGE.
