Abstract
In 1995 a 10year strategic plan for muskellunge program management in Missouri was developed by the Missouri Department of Conservation Our mission was to efficiently produce and manage muskellunge in order to provide highquality angling opportunities in suitable welldistributed lakes throughout the state The first goal was to increase the number and improve the distribution of muskellunge fisheries in small lakes In 1995 our three existing muskellunge fisheries were in west central northwest and north Missouri Six additional lakes were stocked with muskellunge from 1995 to 2001 in southeast northeast southwest and central Missouri plus the St Louis area The second goal was to maintain density and size structure of muskellunge populations commensurate with muskellunge angler expectations Our objective was for muskellunge anglers to catch a muskellunge at least 91 cm 36 in in 20–40 h of angling The ShowMe Muskie Project a volunteer angler diary program was initiated in 1996 to help evaluate this objective The third goal was to inform Missouri anglers about increased opportunities for highquality muskellunge fishing We developed a muskellunge web page created a release poster updated our muskellunge brochure published magazine articles and mailed biannual letters to our ShowMe Muskie Project cooperators
