ABSTRACT The year two-thousand seven () marked the twenty-third consecutive spring that spear fishing was conducted by Chippewa tribes in off-reservation waters of northern Wisconsin. A total of tribal members participated in this traditional fishery. Spearing for walleye occurred on lakes and walleye were harvested from all except lake. A total of, fish were taken with % of the catch (, fish) being walleye. Numbers of other gamefish harvested were muskellunge, bass, northern pike, and sturgeon. Average lengths were. inches for walleye and. inches for muskellunge. The tribal walleye quota was exceeded by a total of fish on lakes. On the remaining lakes, harvest of walleye and muskellunge was maintained within the established limits by a nightly permit system and complete monitoring of the catch. No additional spearing or gill-net effort occurred during the remainder of the fishing year.

INTRODUCTION This report presents data for harvest and effort by Chippewa spearers in ceded territory waters of northern Wisconsin (Figure ) during spring. Since, fall spearing and summer gill-netting have occasionally occurred in off-reservation waters. However, in no other harvest or effort occurred after spring. REGULATIONS Regulations governing the use of spears and nets for harvesting walleye and muskellunge were adopted by each of the six Wisconsin tribes and became permanent in. A listing of the major differences between permanent regulations and negotiated interim rules that governed tribal harvest in can be found in Kmiecik and Shively (). PERMIT SYSTEM AND MONITORING The permit system has operated in the same manner since. Permits (Figure ) were issued at a tribal office during the day or at the designated boat landing at night. The number of permits that could be issued was determined daily by dividing the remaining tribal quota (TQ) for a lake by the nightly bag limit selected for that lake. Lakes were closed to further spearing of walleye and to all netting once the walleye TQ was reached. However, spearing permits could be issued for harvest of other species. All spearing was monitored by tribal creel clerks under the supervision of Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife Commission (GLIFWC) wardens and biologists. A set of instructions for collecting biological data was provided to creel clerks at a training meeting prior to the spring season. During spearing, teams of creel clerks and wardens were assigned to each lake in some areas and only to lakes where permits had been issued in other areas. These teams arrived at the designated boat landing before dark and completed a catch report form upon return of each boating party. For species other than walleye, all fish were identified, counted, sex determined, and measured. For walleye, all fish were counted. Also, the first walleye plus all those in the last boat were measured and sex determined. In addition, permits were collected and a record was made of each person's tribal ID number, the time spearing started and the time it ended. Harvest and effort for each lake were totaled and reported by a.m. the following day to administrative staff at the GLIFWC office in Odanah. These data were then transmitted to tribal and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) representatives by a.m. and used to update walleye and muskellunge TQ's. During all catch report forms were faxed or emailed in daily. Tribal representatives typically notified GLIFWC before noon of the lakes and bag limits selected for spearing that night. In turn, these data were transmitted to the WDNR.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Fishing Effort As in previous years, effort in the spring spear fishery was measured in three ways: by the number of spearers, the number of spearer-nights, and the number of boat-hours. Number of spearers. All tribal members spearing under permits issued by each tribe were counted as an individual spearer for that tribe regardless of whether the spearer was an enrolled member of the tribe issuing permits. A total of tribal members participated in the spring spear fishery (Table, Figure, Appendix A). Compared to the total number of spearers increased by persons or %. Table.

The number of members from other tribes that speared on lakes selected by Bad River was, by Lac Courte Oreilles was, by Lac du Flambeau was, and by Mole Lake was. Figure. Number of spearers during spring spearing seasons from -. Number of Spearers Year

Number of Spearer-nights or Permits Used. In a previous report (Kmiecik ), special clarification was given to the definition of "spearer-nights". It should be understood that the total number of "spearer-nights" is not simply the total number of nights that all tribal members speared, because some individuals speared under more than one permit on a single night. Additional permits have been issued at night at a boat landing on a "first come, first served" basis and only when enough fish remained in the tribal quota for a lake so that other permits could be issued. Persons receiving a second, third, or fourth permit may have speared on the same lake, a different lake, or both the same and a different lake. With this clarification in mind, this effort statistic will continue to be referred to as spearer-nights, but it can also be viewed as a count of the total number of permits used. Table.

Walleye Harvest Tribal quotas (TQ) for walleye were selected for lakes and totaled, walleye (Table ). The percent of the "safe harvest" selected as tribal quotas for lakes in ranged from.% (Escanaba Lake, and Sparkling Lake, Vilas County) to.% (Lac Vieux Desert, Vilas County). Two tribes selected the same lake in instances and agreed on various inter-tribal allocation formulas to keep the TQ within the selected percentage. No lakes were selected by more than two Wisconsin tribes. Tribal spearers harvested a total of, walleye from lakes (Table, Figure, Appendix B). Spearing also occurred in one other lake (Boom Lake in Oneida County) but no walleye were harvested. The percent of the total walleye quota harvested was %. Table.

Factors which influence the number of males and females speared were described by Kmiecik and Shively (). Some of the factors include bag limit and size restrictions, differences in behavior between the sexes during spawning season, and spearer preference. Table.
