Biologists with the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources operate a specialized muskellunge spawning program to maintain healthy populations of one of the state’s most prized sport fish.
Each spring, fisheries teams collect adult brood stock from rivers and lakes, spawn the fish at hatcheries and raise young muskies before stocking them in waters across the state.
The effort helps sustain West Virginia’s reputation as a premier destination for anglers while protecting the long-term health of the species.
