The Arsenic Content Of Water, Plankton, Soil And Fish From Ponds Treated With Sodium Arsenite For Weed Control

Arsenic analyses were made of over 1,000 samples of water, plankton, soil and fish from a 22-acre, a 26-acre, and eight 0.25-acre earthen ponds that were treated with different amounts of sodium arsenite. The concentrations of arsenic in the waters from the 22- and 26-acre ponds treated with 4.0 p.p.m. As203 in the fall of 1954 declined to 0.05 p.p.m. As203 by January, 1955. The concentration of arsenic in the water of the 22-acre pond that was again treated with 4.0 p.p.m. AS203 in April, 1955, declined to 0.8 p.p.m.

Two Years Of Creel Census On Three North Mississippi Flood Control Reservoirs

The extent of the fishing pressure, harvest and fishing success on Sardis, Enid and Grenada Reservoirs, in north-central Mississippi, was undetermined in recent years. A creel census program was initiated June 15,1958, to provide this information. Grenada Reservoir received an estimated fishing pressure of 300,271 hours in 1958-1959 and 296,746 hours in 1959-1960. Sardis received an estimated 242,719 hours in 1958-1959 and 247,414 hours in 1959-1960. Enid received an estimated 147,605 hours in 1958-1959 and 96,297 in 1959-1960.

Forage Fish Preference and Growth Rate of Largemouth Black Bass Fingerlings Under Experimental Conditions

Experiments to determine the forage species preference of largemouth black bass fingerlings and a few larger bass are described. Data on the amount of food consumed, rate of growth and food conversion are presented. Forage minnows included were goldfish, Carassius auratus (Linnaeus), fathead, Pimephales promelas (Rafinesque) and bluegill, Lepomis macrochirus (Rafinesque).

Fishing Pressure and Success in Areas of Flooded Standing Timber in Bull Shoals Reservoir, Missouri

In April, 1958, creel censuses on the White River Arm of Bull Shoals Reservoir, Missouri, were altered to permit separate tabulations of data from anglers who fished exclusively in three areas of flooded standing timber. The combined acreage of the timbered areas is 6.3 acres, or 0.26 per cent of the entire creel census area (2,380 acres). During 1959, nearly 15 per cent of all anglers counted were timber fishermen. Fishing pressure in that year amounted to 5,138 hours per acre in timbered areas, as compared to 97 hours per acre in the remainder of the census area.

Efficiency and Selectivity of Flag Gill Nets Fished In Lake Bistineau, Louisiana

n order to determine the efficiency and selectivity of flag gill nets in catching game fish, experimental flag gill nets were fished in Lake Bistineau during the period March through August, 1956. Flag gill nets contain no lead line and are hung on a top line which contains no floats. The experimental nets used consisted of the following mesh sizes: 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.5 inch square mesh. For summary purposes the various species of fish were grouped into 3 types: (1) commercial fish (2) game fish and (3) other fish.

A Three-Year Study of the Fall Migration and Roosting-Flight Habits of the Wood Duck in East-Central North Carolina

Late afternoon counts of wood ducks (Aix sponsa) , as they came to roost in woodland ponds, were made in the fall and early winter months of 1953, 1954, and 1960, near Wendell, North Carolina. The numbers of wood ducks which came to roost increased rapidly during October of each year and peak numbers generally were recorded during late October and very early November, in correlation with the regular fall migration of these birds to and through the state from more northern areas.

Antagonistic Relationships between Ants and Wildlife with Special Reference to Imported Fire Ants and Bobwhite Quail in the Southeast

Nesting studies with penned quail were conducted during the summers of 1960 and 1961 in Lee County, Alabama. Approximately 30 hatches were obtained in close proximity to imported fire ant (Solenopsis .mevissima richteri Forel) mounds. These were carefully observed for any instance of annoyance or predation by the ants. Similar observations were made on four cotton rat litters. A small number of nests of various species of wildlife occurring naturally near ant colonies were observed. Observations were also made on pipping and newly hatched chicks placed about imported fire ant mounds.

Distribution and Abundance of Striped Bass (Roccus Saxatilis, Walbaum) on the Florida Gulf Coast

Striped bass, Roccus saxatilis, (Walbaum), occurs in all major river systems along the Florida Gulf Coast from the Suwannee River west to the Perdido. The only striped bass population in West Florida known to spawn successfully was in the Apalachicola River Drainage. The population level for the other rivers was too low to maintain a sport fishery. The Apalachicola River stock of striped bass is discussed in detail.

Estimating the Number of Marked Animals Which Have Retained Their Identity From Multiple Marked Animals And Its Application to the Petersen Method

In order to make an estimate of the size of a population of animals at a given time by the Petersen method, use is made of a sample of the fraction of marked animals in the population. However, if some of the animals originally marked lose their marks and thus can not be identified in the sample, a Petersen type estimate will be biased, the magnitude of the bias depending upon the proportion of animals retaining their identity. If an estimate can be made of the animals which have retained their identity at a given time, it is possible to make corrections for this bias.

A Comparison of Production of Albino and Normal Channel Catfish

Albino (golden) and normal channel catfish were compared in feeding experiments during a 346-day period. There was no difference in rate of growth, but the percentage of survival was 94.2 for the normal catfish and 81.1 for the albinos. Fishing success was similar for the two.

An Evaluation of Prestocking Checks Conducted by Fishery Biologists in Alabama Ponds

In its attempt to provide more and better fishing in the State, the Fisheries Section of the Alabama Department of Conservation initiated a program whereby fishery biologists would check all ponds before they were stocked with hatchery fish. Attempts were made to contact each pond owner, check the pond in his presence, and advise him of the proper methods of stocking and management which have resulted from fisheries research in Alabama. A total of 845 ponds were checked in 14 counties in east-central Alabama during the period of September 1955 through September 1959.

Commercial and Sport Fishing on Guntersville Lake During the Period of March 15-June 13, 1960

A census of sport and commercial fishermen was conducted on Guntersville Lake from March 15 through June 13, 1960. The objectives were to determine species composition of the catches, the types and extent of sport and commercial fishing, the interrelationship of sport and commercial fishing and the problems of each. The census included data on incomplete fishing trips of sport fishermen and complete fishing trips of commercial fishermen. Crappie were the fishing choice of 58 percent of the 1,654 sport fishermen and made up 69 percent of the catch by weight.
