This is a call for helpers to net and implant radio transmitters into muskellunge in Green Bay. Please pass this along to any one you know who may be interested in helping. If you are a club representative please pass this along to your club members.
Volunteers can meet us either in Green Bay or at the field site. Volunteers should bring along waterproof pants, bibs or waders, and a waterproof rain jacket. We will provide a PFD.
