Angling Success And Recreational Use On Twelve State-Owned Lakes In Oklahoma Twelve state-owned lakes in Oklahoma were surveyed in 1965 to obtain data on sport fishing and recreational use. The lakes were virtually unmanaged and ranged in size from 26 to 180 surface acres. This project was designed to provide a basis for future management. Data was calculated on an I.B.M. 7040 computer. Average harvest in pounds per acre ranged from 22 to 107, with fishing pressure ranging from 138 to 622 hours per acre. The catch consisted mainly of largemouth bass, crappie, channel catfish, bullheads, redear sunfish and bluegill sunfish.

Turbidity Control And Fish Population Renovation On Blue Mountain Lake, Arkansas Blue Mountain Dam, a flood control project on the Petit Jean River in west central Arkansas, was completed in 1947 impounding a 2,900 acre reservoir. The reservoir is relatively shallow, receives strong wind action and has a watershed to lake area ratio of over 100:1. Since four to five years after impoundment, the lake has been plagued with heavy concentrations of colloidal turbidity and a fish population dominated by non-foragable sizes of buffalo, carp, drum and gizzard shad.

Evaluation Of Various Tagging Methods On Several Freshwater Fishes And Estuarine Fishes Of Luisiana The retention rates of Atkins, dart, Petersen, spaghetti and strap tags were compared on largemouth bass, bluegill and Atlantic croaker. Antiseptics used in tagging operations were evaluated for their usefulness in promoting tag retention. Petersen and spaghetti tags were found to be the most suitable of the tags tested for bluegills in short-term studies of three months. Petersen, spaghetti and Atkins tags were found suitable for shortterm tagging (3% months) with largemouth bass. None of the tags were found suitable for long-term studies with the bass.

An Inexpensive Backpack Shocker For One-Man Use A small backpack fish shocker weighing 19 pounds. was develop,;d for use in sampling mountain trout streams on .the NatIOnal Forests. m the Southern Appalachians. Power .components mclude a small gasolme engine-generator combination and a step-up transformer. The completed backpack provides a choice of 125 volts, 300 volts, or 600 volts alternating current (AC). This unit is adaptable to two electrode systems. One, consisting of an aluminum dipnet and a telescoping radio antenna for the electrodes, proved most useful and versatile in the rough headwater streams sampled.

Production And Returns From The Commercial Production Of Fish In Arkansas During 1966 Commercial fish farming is the fastest growing industry in the field of agriculture in Arkansas. Due to its fast growth, allied industries have not kept pace. Part of the difficulty has been the lack of knowledge in the right places as this industry has developed. To collect statistics on this ballooning industry, a meeting between interested agencies was held at Stuttgart, Arkansas. At this meeting a questionnaire was developed with the idea of programming the information for IBM storage.

Food Habits Of Young Largemouth Bass (Micropterus Salmoides) In Hatchery Ponds The stomachs of 525 largemouth bass fry and fingerlings were examined and the food organisms identified to genus when possible. Length and width measurements were made on the food organisms to determine area and then the area was used as an index to volume. The most important food organisms were copepods, cladocerans, and midges. There was a size relationship between fish and food item with the larger fish taking a larger food item. Fish smaller than 15 millimeters in length ate copepods and cladocerans primarily while larger fish ate mostly midges.

Are The Achievements Of Your Wildife Law Enforcement Recognized? Law Enforcement is a difficult job, one that likely involves more different types of work than we find in any other department of our organization. At the top of his many duties,the Conservation Officer must be an official representative for the entire department's program in his assigned area. Since he must excel in good public relations in his own community, he must also have the ability (if given the opportunity) to help promote good relations throughout the whole organization.

Fall quail population censuses were conducted on a 257.6~acre study area of the Auburn University Agricultural Experiment Station extending over a period of 23 years. Spring quail censuses were conducted for 15 years. In 1940 the land had just been retired from intensive corn and cotton cultivation, and the quail population was very low (5.0 birds per 100 acres). In 1944 the fall quail population reached 40.8 birds per 100 acres and it was about the same in 1945.

Utilization Of Available Foods By Diving Ducks On Apalachee Bay, Florida A study designed to determine the vegetative composition and production of that portion of Apalachee Bay, Florida, ,included within the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge was carried out in 1964. Gizzards and gullets of fourteen diving ducks were subsequently collected in order to correlate feeding activities with available foods. Greater scaup consumed large quantities of animal foods. Redheads consumed considerably more vegetative material than animal, and showed a predilection for shoalgrass.

A Comparison Of Some Deer Census Methods In Tennessee Five deer census methods are compared on the Central Peninsula deer herd in Eastern Tennessee. This insular herd is intensively managed and has several characteristics which make it worthy of population analysis. All census methods indicated similar population trends and differed only in magnitude. The Lincoln Index and Percent Kill Methods provided the most reliable estimates. The latter is the easiest to calculate. The Sex-age Kill Method will apparently give good herd estimates, if the percent of non-hunting losses can be approximated and allowance made for other problems.

Mandibular Cavity Tissue As A Possible Indicator Of Condition In Deer Preliminary data suggest that the fat content of the soft tissue in the cavity under the grinding teeth of the mandible might be a useful indicator of condition in deer. Seven physical characteristics were measured on 85 deer. Statistical treatment of these data suggest a strong relationship between the fat content of the mandibular cavity tissue and the condition of the deer. Three of the five best correlations were between mandibular cavity tissue fat and other characteristics related to condition.

Movements Of Transplanted European Wild Boar In North Carolina And Tennessee Movements and homing instinct of transplanted European wild boar were studied on adjacent wildlife management areas in western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee over a six-year period (1960-1965). Ninety-one wild boars were live-trapped within the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, transferred to the game department representing the state within which they were captured, ear-tagged for subsequent identification, and released at distances ranging from 13 to 27 airline miles from the point of capture.

European Wild Hog Hunting Season Recommendations Based On Reproductive Data Wild sows are physiologically capable of farrowing during any season of the year. However, there are two main farrowing periods; mid-winter (January and February) and early summer (May and June). To determine the importance of the different farrowing periods and the most appropriate time to subject the species to hunting pressure, the year was divided into three periods: December-March, April-July, and August-November.

Progress Report: Productivity Study Of Whistling Swans Wintering In Chesapeake Bay During the past four winters an effort has been made to devise a satisfactory method of estimating the percent of young among the whistling swan population wintering in the Chesapeake Bay. Work to date indicates that this can be done by use of well distributed 35-mm. aerial color slides. Combining photography with direct visual appraisal was tried in the winter of 1965.

Telemetric Study Of Deer Movement-Ecology In The Southeast Twenty-eight deer were instrumented with radio transmitters in four Florida and Alabama habitats. Telemetric contact varied from a few hours to more than four months. Minimum home ranges of seven of these deer in their natural habitats ranged from 147 to 243 acres. This relative uniformity occurred despite considerable variation in habitat characteristics. Similarities among the habitats that might account for this uniformity were noted. Minimum home range major axes ranged from 0.76 to 2.23 miles in length with most being just less than one mile.
