  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;The rate of jaw tag loss was evaluated for walleye&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;Stizostedion vitreum&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;in Escanaba Lake, Wisconsin. We estimated tag loss using two recapture methods, a creel census and fykenetting. Average annual tag loss estimates were 17.5% for fish recaptured by anglers and 27.8% for fish recaptured in fyke nets. However, fyke-net data were biased by tag loss during netting. The loss rate of jaw tags increased with time and walleye length.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
