Not the preceding Lake Moraine section.
• Four ways of sampling Otisco’s fish · Same Otisco subsection continued across columns: walleye n=71 and tiger musky n=12; walleye CPUE 5.9 per net-night and 4.8 per hour with none in fyke net; tiger musky 0.4 per net-night and 3.2 per hour with none in fyke net. No lake-wide population count or comparison between unlike effort units.
• Four ways of sampling Otisco’s fish · Continuation of Otisco subsection: CPUE suggests moderate-to-abundant walleye; concluding sentence states analysis ongoing and final report should be available by early 2016. This expectation does not prove a final report was completed or inspected.
