Adopt-a-Muskie

Since 1986 your Capital City Muskie Inc club has stocked 21,500 fingerlings in our Madison lakes. In 2005 we started stocking the Leech Lake strain exclusively. The cost for this project has been approximately $113,000 over the years.
Having a world class Muskie fishery in our backyard has led to many memories for our musky fishing community. Lake Wingra, Monona and Waubesa each year continue to produce nice fish with reports of some real giants caught and released.
Our club has had wonderful financial support from not only our members but muskie enthusiasts across the country. Without this support long term efforts to continue replenishing our resource would not be possible.

CCMI in 2021 initiated the Adopt-a-Muskie program to help these ongoing efforts. Here is how you can help.

How You Can Help:

Adopt a Muskie for $20 or adopt 6 for $100.
You will receive a small commemorative CCMI item as well as your pit tag numbers of your fish
Every year the DNR provides us (CCMI) a list of all the angler captured fish that had their pit tag scan.
If your adopted fish gets scanned and is angler caught you win. (Must be CCMI member to win. You can only win once in each category))
- 30″- 34 7/8 = $20 payout
- 35″ – 39 7/8 = $30 payout
- 40″ – 44 7/8 = $50 payout 45″ – 49 7/8 = $100 payout
- 50″+ = $250 payout
All proceeds are put directly towards Muskie stocking on the Madison Chain of Lakes. Let’s keep the future of Muskie fishing strong for years to come!

Thank you for supporting the future of Muskie fishing in Madison!!!!!!!
