Meeting Details

PLEASE NOTE: THIS MEETING WILL BE HELD AT THE DOW OFFICES

 The DOW will present a powerpoint presentation that would explain forage management and the relationship to developing and maintaining predator populations with special emphasis on walleye/saugeye.  

“Predator and Prey Management – Considerations for Sustained Quality Walleye & Saugeye Populations”.

·         The determinant reservoir factors for forage management (basin morphology, phys/bio characteristics, and water management).

·         A review of walleye/saugeye forage (dominant species, importance of other forage species, seasonality)

·         The predator component and how we manage for a sustained fishery (walleye/saugeye in conjunction with other predator species like white bass, wiper, cats, black bass, etc)

·         Predator/forage management (goals/objectives for developing, maintaining and balancing predators)

·         Factors that influence the predator/prey balance (water management, year-class strengths, stocking supply, survival, recruitment, etc)

·         Management options to influence predators/forage and the balance between them (stocking, regulations, habitat)

·         Case studies.
