Table 20. Castor River 6-year summary of selected creel parameters reported in the Missouri
State-Wide Angler Survey, 1983 - 1988. Becauseof limited angler contacts (221 anglers during the
6-year period) all data were combined. Parameters involving estimates (pressure, total catch and
total harvest) were avoided.

Table 21. Headwaters Diversion Channel 2-year summary of selected creel parameters reported in the Missouri State-Wide Angler Survey, 1987-1988. Because of wide annual fluctuations and limited angler contacts (182 anglers during the 2-year period) all data were combined. Parameters involving estimates (pressure, total catch, and total harvest) were avoided.
