History Of Fish And Fishing In Norris A TVA Tributary Reservoir

Norris Reservoir, the first TVA tributary reservoir, completed in 1936, has a spillway surface area of 34,200 acres. Earliest fish inventory records in the basin indicate 17 indigenous families of fishes represented by 40 genera and 65 species. Four families, Petromyzonidae, Anguillidae, Cyprinodontidae, and Cottidae, were unable to cope with the reservoir environment. Several genera and species of Cyprinidae and Percidae likewise did not survive. Game and commercial species generally have prospered in the reservoir.

A Proposal For The Management Of Reservoirs For Fisheries

A fisheries management plan for reservoirs is proposed which is dependent upon having a fish management pool and provision for drainage incorporated into the basic design. Justification is given to support the cost of having a cleared management pool in the bottom of the reservoir as well as drainage facilities. A plan is also proposed for selective clearing of reservoir basins.

Shad Management In Reservoirs

Management of some form is mandatory for the continuance or restoration of successful fishing in the majority of reservoirs in the Southern States. The selective killing of gizzard shad and some species of rough fish with rotenone shows promise as a management tool for some reservoirs. The use of rotenone as a selective toxicant in four Kentucky reservoirs is discussed. The total poundage of gizzard shad was drastically reduced in three reservoirs and this species was eliminated from a fourth reservoir.

Reservoir Operation For Statutory Purposes

The Corps of Engineers of the Department of the Army plans and constructs authorized flood control and multiple-purpose reservoirs under the general provisions of the Flood Control Acts of 1936 and 1944 and other legislation authorizing specific reservoir projects. The 1944 Act delegates to the Secretary of the Army responsibility for prescribing regulations for the use of flood control or navigation storage at all reservoirs, except those of the TVA, constructed wholly or in part with Federal funds.

The Black And White Crappies Of The Santee-Cooper Reservoir

The reservoir has a surface acreage of 160,500 and contains two rather dissimilar lakes; namely, Lake Moultrie and Lake Marion. A four-year continuous creel census indicated that three-fourths of the catch of crappies was made in Lake Marion. Four distinct growth rates were encountered in a growth study of each species in each lake. A food habit study of 149 full crappie stomachs showed insects to occur 77.1% of the time and fish 55.7% of the time. A world record black crappie (Pomoxis nigro-maculatus) was caught in Lake Moultrie on March 15, 1957.

Further Experiments On Feeds For Fathead Minnows

Fathead minnows averaging 1.74 pounds per thousand were stocked into ponds January 21 at rates of 100,000 per acre, and fed 6 days a week until the ponds were drained April 1. The feeds were 3 forms of Auburn NO.2 fish feed, namely, dry mix, crumbles, %-inch diameter pellets, and a commercial trout pellet. The ingredients of the Auburn No.2 fish feed were: 35 Percent Soybean Oil Meal . . . . . (44 percent protein) 35 Percent Ground Peanut Cake . . . . . (53 percent protein) 15 Percent Fish Meal . . . . . (60 percent protein) 15 Percent Distillers Dried Solubles . . . . .

A Summary Of Methods Used During Florida's Gizzard Shad Control Experiments

Determination of a desirable concentration of 5 percent emulsified rotenone in. a given lake to control gizzard shad was accomplished by an observational technique. The concentration employed varied from 0.06 p.p.m. to 0.14 p.p.m. The time of year considered best suited for treatment was during the fall. Methods used to apply the toxicant were varied but appeared about equal of results except while using spray planes. The most favorable results occurred when good distribution was secured by using six to twelve hours for application, numerous surface units and dilute mixtures.

Appraisal And Management Recommendations Resulting From A Three-Year Comparative Fishery Study Of Lake Catherine, Lake Hamilton And Lake Ouachita, Arkansas

A pattern of high original reservoir productivity followed by gradual decline (in terms of angling success and desirable fish production) has been evidenced in a chain of lakes, of different ages, on the Ouachita River, Arkansas. Lake Catherine, formed in 1923, consists of 3,000 acres; Lake Hamilton, created in 1931, consists of 7,200 acres, and Lake Ouachita, impounded in 1953, covers 40,000 acres. A comprehensive fishery study was conducted during the summers of 1955, 1956 and 1957 to investigate and compare the fishery resources of these lakes and formulate management plans.

Preliminary Results Of Several Herbicides On Aquatic Vegetation In Florida

The 1957 Legislature expanded The Florida Hyacinth Control Program to a Noxious Vegetation Control Program. This made testing of herbicides for the control of other noxious plants necessary. A convenient field test of herbicides was developed. These herbicides were tested using disel oil and/or water as a carrier.

Some Observations On The Recovery Of Diving Ducks Banded In The Maryland Portion Of Chesapeake Bay

During the six years 1952 to 1957, a total of 13,269 waterfowl of three species (lesser scaup, redhead and canvasback) were banded in Maryland. From these, 1,125 band recoveries had been reported to June, 1958. Bands recovered through hunters (shot) made up the great majority of all reported, ranging from 91.9 percent of all recovered for lesser scaup to 96.5 percent for redheads. Waterfowl of the three species investigated were reported from 33 states, six Canadian provinces and the Bahamas.
