This book was released on 1959 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research to appraise current fish management practices and to develop improved practices was carried on in the Yellowstone National Park portion of the Madison River system from 1953 to 1957. The physical, chemical and biological characteristics of the Firehole, Gibbon and Madison Rivers are described. Experiements designed to test the value of fingerling and adult stocking resulted in the conclusion that fingerling stocking of brown and rainbow trout does not contribute to the fishery substantially and that adult stocking is of greatest value only in the season of stocking. Examination of scales showed that hatchery fish are readily distinguishable from wild fish. There were no differences in growth rates of wild fish in different years for different rates of stocking of hatchery fish. The brown and rainbow trout populatons are not affected adversely by heavy introduction of hatchery fingerlings of each species or of adult rainbows. Brook and brown trout and whitefish are substantially underfished.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fishery Management Studies on the Madison River System in Yellowstone National Park The temperature of the water in the Fire hole is in uenced to some degree by geysers, but only localized areas become too warm for brown and rainbow trout. Simonian (1952) recorded the in uence of Giant Geyser, the largest geyser in the park, on the temperature of the Firehole River. Water temperatures 200 yards downstream from the eruption rose from 64 f. To 75 f. At the point where the thermal water was entering the stream, a temperature of 115 f. Was recorded. Giant Geyser erupts irregularly with a minimum interval of 48 hours, and the temporary in uence of the warm water does not prevent brown and rainbow trout from living under such conditions The distribution of the brook trout in the Firehole was outside of the areas in uenced by thermal acti viry; they were principally confined to small trib utary streams and to areas above Old Faithful. The Firehole River originates in Madison Lake, located about eight miles south of Old Faith ful, and ows northward for about 32 miles where it joins the Gibbon River (fig. The ow in early September 1957 was about 35 cfs at Old Faithful and about 200 cfs where it joins the Gibbon. Many hot springs and geysers enter the river along a 12 -mile section below Old Faithful. The river falls about 700 feet from two miles above Old Faithful to its mouth, an average gra dient of feet per mile. It varies in width from 40 to 100 feet and in depth from six inches to over ten feet. Firehole Falls are 40 feet high and are located about four miles above the stream mouth; for the next two miles below the falls, the Firehole ows through a gorge in a series of cascades. The falls, together with the cascades, serves as a barrier against upstream fish movement. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history and guide to the fly-fishing waters of Yellowstone National Park is a loving homage to the region’s iconic wild trout. Yellowstone National Park is home to some of the most storied destinations in the history of fly fishing. Casting in the Firehole River is like going back in time to when bison roamed nearly every meadow in the West. Restored to their natal streams after near extinction, native Arctic grayling can once again be plucked from icy water at the foot of breathtaking waterfalls. Meanwhile, a daylong hike into true wild country rewards an angler with a chance to catch trophy native cutthroat trout on a lonely mountain lake. In Catching Yellowstone’s Wild Trout, local journalist and experienced angler Chris Hunt explores the rich history of these beloved and bountiful waters.
