The Bureau of Freshwater Fisheries currently has five fisheries biologists on staff. The primary delineation of responsibilities is based on regional watershed management areas. The state is divided into five regional watershed management areas. In addition to regional responsibilities assigned, each biologist has a specific area of expertise and oversees related research and management programs.

For information regarding management programs, or about a water you fish in, contact the appropriate biologist using the topics or the "clickable map" below.
