Abstract
Abstract Presently available fishery models are either too simplified or too complicated to be useful to inland fishery managers. This research was directed toward developing a simplified but realistic computerized simulator useful to fishery managers. The model developed is basically an age-class structured simulator with features built in to allow easy but effective use by fishery managers. It includes provisions for input of all important parameters plus provisions for density-dependent relationships where applicable. Examples of model use are given for a put-and-take rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) fishery and a self-sustaining walleye (Stizostedion vitreum) population.
