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.
WALLEYE POPULATION SHOWS VERY LITTLE OR NO NATURAL REPRODUCTION. CENTRARCHID SPECIES NUMBERS ARE ALL ABOVE THE MEDIANS AND OF RELATIVELY SMALL SIZE. NORTHERN PIKE NUMBERS ARE ABOVE STATE AVERAGES BUT BELOW THE LOCAL MEDIANS. BULLHEAD NUMBERS ARE ABOVE STATE MEDIANS.
