Fisheries Management and Biology

 

Manitoba and its partners conduct fish stock assessment programs on numerous fisheries to monitor fish populations. The data is analyzed and used to inform fisheries management decisions to ensure fisheries are being managed in a sustainable manner. Fisheries assessment reports are developed and shared online. Commonly requested fisheries data sets for Lake Winnipeg and Lake Manitoba, including raw index netting data in an Excel spreadsheet, are available available through the Data and Reports tab below. The publication of this data or its use in whole or in part in any published work, is subject to the prior permission of Manitoba’s Fisheries Branch.
