Some Effects of Lime Applications To Warm-Water Hatchery Ponds

The results of applying ground limestone (CaCO2) and quicklime (CaO) to hatchery ponds used for the culture of bluegills (Lepomis macrochirus, Raf.) are described. Effects appeared to be beneficial in the sample of ponds treated. Quicklime was difficult to apply because of caustic effects to skin of personnel handling it. Laboratory experiments indicated that hydrated lime (Ca[OH].) could be used to produce a pH as alkaline as that obtained from quicklime provided that an equivalent amount of calcium was used in the hydrated form.

The Otter in North Carolina

The fall-winter foods of otters living along the coast are largely fishprincipally carp, catfish, suckers, and sunfish. The otters' diet at other seasons of the year is largely comprised of fish, blue crab, and crayfish. Other foods, all taken in small quantities, are shrimp, clam, water beetles, decapod, muskrat, rails, and waterfowl. An examination of 53 female otters from northeastern counties over a 12winter period (1947-48-1958-59) showed that breeding starts during January and continues into February and possibly into March.

The Tolerance of Eight Species of Warm-Water Fishes to Certain Rotenone Formulations

Laboratory tests were conducted in aquaria to determine the effectiveness of Sulfoxide as a synergist to rotenone for use as a fish poison. In order to compare the synergized product with standard formulations, Pro-Noxfish (2.5 percent rotenone, 2.5 percent Sulfoxide,S percent other cube extractives, and an emulsifier) was compared to Noxfish (5.0 percent rotenone, 10 percent other cube extractives, and an emulsifier), and to powdered cube (7.3 percent rotenone).

The Toxicity of Noxfish and Pro-Noxfish to Eggs of Common Carp and Fathead Minnows

Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine the toxicity of Noxfish (an emulsifiable formulation containing 5 percent rotenone) and Pro-Noxfish (an emulsifiable formulation containing 2.5 percent rotenone plus 2.5 percent Sulfoxide as a synergist) to eggs of common carp (CyprinMs carpio) and fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas). Spawning devices were added to brood ponds and examined daily to obtain eggs of known age for testing. The 325 carp eggs were 24 to 48 hours old when treated. Ninety percent of the carp eggs in control containers hatched.

The Use of Channel Catfish as Sport Fish

The channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) has proved to be a very promising sport fish in ponds. Fingerlings stocked in February 1958 in a 12.4-acre pond at the rate of 2,000 per acre in combination with fathead minnows and largemouth bass, and given supplemental feeding daily except Sunday, averaged 0.7 pounds by September. During the following periods, September 24 to December 8, and March 14 to October 6, fishermen caught per acre 1,292.5 pounds of channel catfish, 36.9 pounds of largemouth bass, and 27.0 pounds of miscellaneous sunfish.

The Use of Hobbled Gill Nets in a Commercial Fishery of Lake Carl Blackwell, Oklahoma

A modified gill net known as a hobbled gill net was utilized in a commercial fishery in 3,300-acre Lake Carl Blackwell in Central Oklahoma from September, 1957 through December, 1958. A total of 3,200 fish weighing 20,252 pounds was taken in 1,085 net days, a net day being 300 feet of net fished 24 hours. Non-game fishes represented 97 percent by weight of the total catch. Hobbled gill nets proved particularly effective in taking flathead catfish, which comprised 63.4 percent by weight of the total catch.

The White and Channel Catfishes of the Santee-Cooper Reservoir and Tailrace Sanctuary

The reservoir has a surface acreage of 160,500 and contains two rather dissimilar lakes, Lake Moultrie and Lake Marion. Channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) are virtually unknown in Lake Marion, exist in relatively small numbers in Lake Moultrie, and are abundant in the tailrace sanctuary. White catfish (Ictalurus cattts) are present in large numbers in both lakes and the tailrace sanctuary. The channel catfish of Lake Moultrie and the tailrace sanctuary grow larger and faster, live longer and are in better condition than any channel catfish described in the literature.

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.

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.

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 . . . . .

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.
