S. Fish and Wildlife Service Branch of Policy and Planning PO Box 25486 Denver, CO 80225-04865 Please accept the following comments submitted by the Flathead Lakers for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Bison Range Complex Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP) development. The Flathead Lakers is a nonprofit, grassroots organization. Our organization was founded in 1958 and currently has over 1,500 members. We work to protect water quality in Flathead Lake and its watershed through education, advocacy and stewardship projects. Our beautiful lakes, rivers and streams, and the fish and wildlife that depend on them are part of what makes the Flathead such a special place and are a large part of its identity. The quality of the environment contributes to our quality of life and our economy. In fact, our quality natural environment has become a competitive advantage and a major force driving economic growth in Flathead County. The Flathead Lakers initiated the collaborative Critical Lands Project in 1999 to address concerns that rapid growth and development would damage lands and waters critical to maintaining the quality of Flathead Lake and its tributaries and the area’s quality of life. The Flathead Lakers coordinate the resulting partnership, the Flathead River to Lake Initiative (R2L), which includes representatives from federal, tribal, state, and local resource management agencies, land trusts, conservation groups and landowners. -

Among the Taiwanese, fish is considered auspicious and a sym bol of bounty. This is because the pronunciation of “fish” (yü) is similar to that of “surplus” (yü), indicating abundance and pros perity. A fish specialty, with the fish preferably presented in its entirety, is a constant fare on the dining table during special occa sions. And in the true Taiwanese tradition, this most special dish is served as the last course, something truly worth waiting for, and remembered. It was in the 1960s that the first successes on artificial propa Not surprisingly, fish culture is itself an age-old traditiongation in were achieved, this time in several species of Chinese carps Taiwan.

Trout Fishing in Hillsdale July, 2012 Guy Winig, Member Hillsdale Conservation Advisory Council
Roe Jan Brown-released to fight another day. Trout Fishing in Hillsdale July, 2012 Guy Winig, member Hillsdale Conservation Advisory Council Trout are our canaries in a coalmine. They are an excellent indicator of stream health, requiring clean, cold, well-oxygenated water to thrive. Without very high quality surface waters, trout just cannot survive. Hillsdale is fortunate to have several miles of trout streams including the Roeliff Jansen Kill, Taconic Creek, Agawamuck Creek and Green River with numerous smaller and unnamed tributaries contributing to them. Our streams and their residents endure many perils including natural flood and drought cycles as well as man made impacts like pollution, invasive species, barriers and over –fishing. Erosion adds silt that smothers aquatic food sources and gravel spawning beds. Introduced Didymo algae (a.k.a. ‘Rock Snot’) now found in the Green River, also chokes the streambed. Loss of vegetation exposes water to heating and eliminates important breeding, feeding and cover areas for trout. Readers may recall the massive fish kill that resulted from the release of manure into the Roe Jan in the 90’s or tales of unscrupulous ‘sportsmen’ using small explosives and chlorine to kill all the fish in a segment of stream. Maybe the most harmful and insidious are non-point sources of pollution such as chemicals, fertilizers and heated runoff from parking lots, roads, roofs, crop fields and lawns. In 2009 and 2010, members of the community with help from the Columbia-Greene chapter of Trout Unlimited and the N.Y.S.D.E.C. Trees for Tributaries program planted several hundred small trees and shrubs on the banks and flood plain of the Roe Jan Kill through the Roe Jan Park in an effort to stabilize banks, introduce vegetative cover and provide shade to maintain cool stream temperatures. -

If you’re like me, you are probably looking forward to cooler temperatures, college football and hunting seasons ahead. Don’t forget that fall offers some of the best fishing opportunities of the year. Fish feeding activity increases when temperatures begin to Inside This Issue drop from their summer peak. The best part is that you may have the lake to yourself! Good luck out there! District News Cheney Reservoir Fishing Q&A New Brushpiles Paying Off Hook, Line & Sinker The Cedar trees that were placed in February 2018 are holding some big fish. KDWPT fisheries division staff sampled both sites with electrofishing for catfish in August. Numerous Blue Catfish up to 19 pounds and Flathead Catfish up to 40 pounds were sampled in each location. If you want to go after these fish, you may need to adjust you tactics somewhat. The blues are likely suspended in the upper half of the trees, and the flatheads are probably hanging out on the bottom under the trunks during the day. To target the blues, I At Right: KDWPT fisheries would suggest drifting cut shad biologists Craig Johnson and Lowell Aberson with a just over the tops of the trees, 32-inch Blue Catfish perhaps using a float to control electrofished from a the depth.

Guidelines for Electrofishing Waters Containing Salmonids Listed Under
National Guidelines for Electrofishing Waters Marine Fisheries Containing Salmonids Listed Under Service the Endangered Species Act June 2000 Purpose and Scope The purpose of this document is to provide guidelines for the safe use of backpack electrofishing in waters containing salmonids listed by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). It is expected that these guidelines will help improve electrofishing technique in ways which will reduce fish injury and increase electrofishing efficiency. These guidelines and sampling protocol were developed from NMFS research experience and input from specialists in the electrofishing industry and fishery researchers. This document outlines electrofishing procedures and guidelines that NMFS has determined to be necessary and advisable when working in freshwater systems where threatened or endangered salmon and steelhead may be found. As such, the guidelines provide a basis for reviewing proposed electrofishing activities submitted to NMFS in the context of ESA Section 10 permit applications as well as scientific research activities proposed for coverage under an ESA Section 4(d) rule. These guidelines specifically address the use of backpack electrofishers for sampling juvenile or adult salmon and steelhead that are not in spawning condition. Electrofishing in the vicinity of adult salmonids in spawning condition and electrofishing near redds are not discussed as there is no justifiable basis for permitting these activities except in very limited situations (e.g., collecting brood stock, fish rescue, etc.). The guidelines also address sampling and fish handling protocols typically employed in electrofishing studies. While the guidelines contain many specifics, they are not intended to serve as an electrofishing manual and do not eliminate the need for good judgement in the field. -

LYLES Gulf Coast Research Laboratory, Ocean Springs, Mississippi 39564 and Gulf States Marine Fisheries Commission, Ocean Springs, Mississippi 39564 ABSTRACT The writers describe various small types of plankton blooms such as those occurring in boat slips, the head of a large bayou and a strip type bloom of Chaeroceras on the Gulf beach. Oyster kills from “poison water” draining off of marshes are said to be caused by plankton bloom. Small “jubilees” are said to be caused by localized blooms and one of these is described as it occurred. In November 1938, Dr. Margaretha Brongersma-Sanders of billions of Chaetoceras sp., a common open sea diatom. -
