This includes, but is not limited to protection of habitat, continuing and enhancing stocking programs, combating and preventing water pollution, supporting regulations of angling methods and limits and openly working and communicating with the Minnesota DNR and other organizations in order to benefit the continuation and expansion of the high quality of the Muskellunge and Minnesota Muskellunge programs
