This book was released on 1961 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a study of the Yellowstone Lake cutthroat trout, Salmo clarki lewisi, by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, effects of environment on mortality of eggs, immature fish, spawners, and postspawners were measured for various components of the population in Yellowstone Lake (Wyoming). Five methods for estimating mortality of adults on spawning runs are described, with counting and tagging as the principal procedures. Of the total number of eggs deposited in the gravel, 60 to 75 percent died before hatching, and 99.6 percent had died by the time the fingerlings enetered Yellowstone Lake. In Arnica Creek runs, 48.6 percent died in the stream, 40.2 died later in the lake of natural causes, 7.6 were taken by fishermen, and 3.6 percent were alive 2 years later. The white pelican is a serious predator on cutthroat trout in Yellowstone Lake. From 1949 to 1953 fishermen caught 11.6 percent of the catchable trout available to them. Migrations of adult fish in Yellowstone Lake were traced through tagging.
Download or read book Hooking Mortality of the Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout Salmo Clarki Lewisi in Yellowstone Lake written by Don Hunsaker and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INn the ten years from 1950 to 1960, the number of annual angling hours on Yellowstone Lake, Wyoming, increased from 191,989 to 407,327. In 1964, a total of 488,563 hours of anglers effort was recorded. The shoreline fishery by itself accounted for 167,704 anglers. This increase in angler effort has been accompanied by a greater harvest of fish and is characteristic of the increased sportfishing pressure throughout the United States. With an expanding human population the sport of fishing is continually gaining popularity and growing concern has been voiced in recent years about the gradual depletion of our sport fishery resources due to angler take. In Yellowstone, the importance of greater conservation effort is evidenced by the fact that some 20,000 cutthroat trout were discarded to waste in 1959. Either larger numbers of catchable size fish must be made available or some practical method of conserving individual fish must be developed without detracting from the purely sporting aspects of angling. A potentially rewarding solution to this problem is the possibility of instigating an effective "Fishing-for-Fun" philosophy where anglers would catch fish for the sport of it and immediately return them to the water. Although this idea was initiated in Yellowstone National Park in 1960, in practice, public acceptance and biological benefit have not been measured. This proposed project will establish the feasibility of a large scale catch and return fishing program at Yellowstone lake and contribute significant data to similar programs in other fresh water areas. The research will be under the direction of Don Hunsaker II and F. Phillip Sharpe. All the important factors of the problem will be considered and tested. The project will begin in January, 1966, and extend for a period of three years until December, 1968.

This book was released on 1963 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Equilibrium yield of the cutthroat trout, Salmo clarki lewisi Girard, in Yellowstone Lake, Wyo., is determined from data on catch and spawning runs from 1945 to 1961. Changes in growth rate, spawning runs, mortality rates, and year-class strength are related to differences in total catch. Three stages of exploitation of the stock are defined and the maximum safe catch or equilibrium yield is estimated at 325,000 trout. Management of the sport fishery according to equilibrium yield is discussed with reference to regulations, distribution of fishing pressure, planting, and interspecific competition. The Yellowstone River fishery is treated briefly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prospect of unobserved mortality among fishes released by anglers has been a concern of fishery management biologists for more than a decade. During the summers of 1964 and 1965, experiments were conducted at Yellowstone Lake, Wyoming, to determine-post release mortality of the Yellowstone cutthroat trout (Salmo clarki lewisi) in relation to use various types of sportfishing lures. -- First and second paragraphs.

This book was released on 1961 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Age composition, growth rate, and year-class strength of Yellowstone Lake cutthroat trout from collections made in 1948 and from 1950 to 1959 are analyzed to relate total catch changes in age composition and growth rate. An increase in growth rate of fish fully recruited to the fishery and a decrease in percentages of fish belonging to age groups VI and VII are attributed to an increase in fishing pressure. Mean age of the catch varied with year-length of the catch has remained high, suggesting that production is more efficient now than in past years. Maximum equilibrium yield may be near. If the catch continues to increase at the present rate, it may become excessive within the next few years.
