Aquatic Invasive Species
Planning Partnership
The Eagle River Chamber of Commerce and the Musky Clubs Alliance are partnering
to help with the threat of aquatic invasive species. During the National
Championship Musky Open, participants will be asked to take special precautions
when moving between different lakes to help prevent the spread of aquatic
invasive species.
One of the primary sources of spreading invasive
species is boaters who unknowingly transport invisible early stage life forms of
species such as Zebra Mussels, Spiny Water Fleas, and others from lakes that are
already infested. These hitchhikers are often too small to be seen by the
human eye and can survive for long periods in damp areas such as live wells,
bilge areas, and even anchor ropes and fishing gear.
Contestants will be provided with handout information
prior to fishing the tournament and asked to take special precautions by
following suggested guidelines indicated on the handout. Please do your part to prevent the spread of Invasive Species.
