Default Fish per acre?

The one exception might be muskie. Ohio DNR states that a
healthy muskie population is 2 fish per acre in Ohio ( I could have that
backwards, but not sure


I think you might have it backwards. I read something from the
Pennsylvania
F&B C that adult muskies average about 1 fish for every 2 acres ( or .5
fish
per acre, but that sounds a little silly)

Perhaps this is different from state to state. I did check Ohio DNR and it
does say a healthy muskie population is 2 fish per acre where the same
amount of water might hold 50 bass.
