Phosphate Fertilization of Ponds

Pond fertilization with N-P-K has been used in the Southeast for the past 20 years to increase fish production and to control aquatic weeds and mosquitoes. In ponds which had been fertilized previously for a IS-year period with N-P-K, no significant decrease in production resulted from omitting both nitrogen and potassium from the fertilizer mixture during a four-year ‘experimental period. It appeared that adequate nitrogen for plankton production became available from nitrogen fixation by bacteria or algae and from the organic matter and ammonium stored in the bottom muds.

Parasite Epidemics Affecting Channel Catfish

The prevalence of parasitic epidemics is dependant, to a large extent, upon the density of the host population. Through the application of recent research, up to 2,400 pounds of channel catfish can be produced per acre of water, thus placing their commercial culture on a basis comparable to production of other farm animals. Since fish are confined to a limited environment in ponds without flowing water, they are surrounded by their own metabolic wastes throughout the production period. Such an environment is ideal for the propagation and development of parasitic populations.

Preliminary Studies on the Effect of Dynamiting Fish Populations

During 1963 a series of experiments was conducted to determine the effect of dynamite on fish populations. One set of these experiments consisted of placing various species of fish in cylindrical wire baskets which were suspended vertically in water ranging from six to 15 feet in depth. A dynamite charge, consisting of one stick of 60% ditching dynamite, was placed at a point 10 feet from the nearest line of baskets and was detonated.

An Interim Report on the Use of Hormones to Ovulate Striped Bass (Roccus Saxatilis)

A total of 429 female striped bass were treated with hormones during the spring spawning seasons of 1962 and 1963. Of this number, 118 (26.6%) were induced to ovulate while held captive. One hundred of the ovulated :fish were treated with chorionic gonadotropin while used alone or in combination with other preparations. Eighteen of the ovulated fish were treated with follicle stimulating hormone while used alone or in combination with preparations other than chorionic gonadotropin. Fry production amounted to 2.6 million in 1962 and 13.8 million in 1963.

Development of Tennessee Fish Protection Surveillance System

Increased population and industrial pressures have focused attention on the need for an accelerated and effective program to prevent and control pollution-caused fish kills in Tennessee waters. A training program to facilitate more rapid and accurate determination of the extent, severity, and probable cause or causes has been developed by the Tennessee Game and Fish Commission. Game and Fish Officers are located in each of Tennessee's 95 counties, and they comprise a readily available source of manpower to implement the program.

Preliminary Results in the Use of a Spine Tag

A vinyl tube is being used on the dorsal spine of bass, crappie, and bluegill. Indications are that this tag does not have the adverse effect on the fish that the dart tag or the spaghetti tag has. Loss of tags at the present time is high but work continues using different diameters of tubing and the addition of a glue.

Creel Census on Bussey Brake Reservoir for the First Three Years

Bussey Brake Reservoir is a 2,200-acre impoundment located in northeast Louisiana near Bastrop, Louisiana. This lake was stocked by the Louisiana Wild Life and Fisheries Commission in 1959. It was opened to public fishing on April 30, 1960. Creel data collected through April, 1963, are reported. Fishing pressure varied from 46,000 to 59,000 fisherman trips per year during this period. From 91 to 109 man-hours were spent per acre to catch 76 to 102 pounds of fish per acre. The success ratio varied from 1.74 to 2.29 fish per hour. The fish averaged 0.37 to 0.53 pounds.

Florida Phosphate Pits for Managed Public Fishing Areas

Several mined-out and flooded phosphate pits near a large population center in peninsular Florida have been acquired and put under management by the Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission for public sport-fishing purposes. Costs of making these abandoned phosphate areas accessible to the public are discussed; fishing pressure and sportfishing success on renovated ponds are reported and compared; and the relationships of size and shape of the ponds to success in fishery management are noted.

Multiple Utilization of Gulf Coast Estuaries

It is estimated that some 7500 square miles or 4,800,000 acres of estuarine area exist on the periphery of the Gulf of Mexico. Gulf commercial catches of fish and shel1fish in 1960 consisted of over 1 billion pounds of estuarine dependent species. The contribution of Gulf estuaries ~ward these catches amounted to approximately 230 pounds per acre. The evaluation of estuaries is discussed in terms of total production including other forms of organic matter. Beneficial and detrimental uses of shal1ow-water coastal areas are cited.

Observation on the Propagation of Flathead Catfish in the San Marcos State Fish Hatchery, Texas

Although flathead catfish were very popular fish with the anglers of Texas, very little effort was made in the hatchery system to propagate these fish until about ten years ago. First, flatheads taken from lakes and rivers were used for brood fish. Repeated failures to get these fish to spawn, however, prompted hatchery personnel to rear offspring from some of the few spawns obtained from the feral fish so that hatcheryreared flatheads could be used for brood fish.

Observations on the Factors Involved with Fish Mortality as the Result of Dinoflagellate “Bloom” in a Freshwater Lake

Complete fish mortality associated with the development of high populations of dinoflagellates (Gymnodinium spp.) was observed in 1960 in a 9.5 acre fresh-water lake at Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Toxicity of the water samples containing the algae appeared to be related to the increased pH, length of exposure to sunlight and concentration of algal cells. Filtration with activated carbon removed the toxic effects. Laboratory tests offered data to explain the course of the fish mortality in the lake.

Preliminary Attempts to Increase Midges (Tendipedidae-Diptera) in Hatchery Ponds

In a food-habits study of young largemouth bass at the National Fish Hatchery, Marion, Alabama, midges were found to comprise 80 to 90 percent of the total food volume in fish from 25 to 55 millimeters in length. Since midges were found to be such an abundant food item in the diet of these fish, attempts were made to increase the midge crop by providing additional surface area in the pond for attachment. It was found that ponds having a dominant blue-green algae bloom (Anacystis spp.
