The Center for Limnology at the University of Wisconsin—Madison is seeking four motivated and independent undergraduate students to join the fishing technology research team based out of Trout Lake Station.
Improvements in angler technology over time have the potential to increase angler success and fish catchability. Recent research testing the influences of angler technology on fish catch rates has been mixed, with some studies showing a positive influence of technology use and others with no effect.
