Fish Population Analysis
Do you want to catch bigger bass? How can you attain faster catfish growth? These
and many other questions are what we strive to answer by managing your fish community.
We use proven methods to successfully sample your fishery and determine the overall
status. Once the status is known, we write a management plan with specific prescriptions
to guide you toward the best fishing possible. Perhaps you need to increase the
forage base or maybe reduce t he predator density. Regardless, Midwest Lake Management
will help you realize your pond’s potential
We use a variety of sampling techniques such as electrofishing, hoopnetting, and
seining. The size of the water body makes no difference. We manage 1 acre ponds to 450 acre reservoirs. We are equipped to determine the fish community structure
of the average farm pond and to research more complex issues such as age-growth
relationships, population modeling, mortality estimates, exploitation values, population
estimates, and perform most fishery data analyses.
If you need to start over, we are licensed to apply rotenone which will eradicate
your fishery and allow you to restock without having to drain your pond.
