Does anyone have research data on the impact muskie anglers have on the economy? I don't care where it's from or how old/recent but it should be published so I can cite the paper.
Thanks in advance! |

| Just graduated from the UW system and they have a pretty extensive collection of peer reviewed articles, studies, and journals available to students online.. I did a few searches on the subject for you, but came up empty.. Good luck.

Location: Grand Rapids, MI | Thanks fishfinder!! There doesn't seem to be much out there. Time to find a grad student that wants to study the economy of muskies. |
