Abstract
The Mississippi River bordering Iowa contains approximately 190,000 surface acres of water, of which nearly one-half is located in Iowa. The river, with its intricate network of diverse aquatic habitats, is an important part of Iowa's renewable fishery resource. This study was designed to inventory, describe, and classify the physical properties of approximately 125 Mississippi River current modification structures by determination of those characteristics important to fish and develop a strategic plan to recommend wing and closing dam construction and modification which is compatible with the integrity of the fishery.
