The plan identifies statewide fisheries-management goals, priorities and strategies intended to sustain and enhance Montana's fisheries and angling opportunities.
Updated every four years, the plan allows FWP staff to address emerging management priorities, incorporate new population-trend data and other information, revise conservation strategies as needed and respond to changing fish populations and habitat conditions.
