  • Chapter in Fish Conservation Was Born
    A Dissertation Flies Only: Early Sport Fishing Conservation on Michigan’s Au Sable River By Bryon Borgelt Submitted as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctoral of Philosophy in History _________________________________ Advisor: Diane F. Britton _________________________________ College of Graduate Studies The University of Toledo May 2009 An Abstract of Flies Only: Early Sport Fishing Conservation on Michigan’s Au Sable River Bryon Borgelt Submitted as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctoral of Philosophy in History The University of Toledo May 2009 This dissertation focuses on the earliest stage of fish conservation on the Au Sable River of Michigan. It begins with the popularization of the grayling fishery in the nation’s sporting journals, such as Forest and Stream and Scribner’s Monthly where Thad Norris and others wrote of the adventure and abundance of fly fishing on the Au Sable. By the 1890s the grayling were all but gone due in part to over fishing, commercial lumbering and the introduction of non-native brook trout. Despite the absence of the grayling, a sustainable sport fishing industry had risen from the ashes of the cut over lands of the Michigan High Plains. Early sport fishers had recognized man’s role in the loss of grayling and began their own versions of fish and stream conservation centered in the towns of Grayling and Lovells. Early fish conservation looked directly at protecting the resource itself, and not the modern holistic approach that encompasses the entire ecosystem. The first focus was to create state laws that closed seasons and promoted more sporting methods of capture such as the use of a hook and line.

  • Surviving Fisheries Management: Angling, Aquaculture, and Lake Ahmic
    SURVIVING FISHERIES MANAGEMENT: ANGLING, AQUACULTURE, AND LAKE AHMIC Michael David Del Vecchio SUBMITTED INPARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTERS OF ART IN HISTORY NIPISSING UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES NORTH BAY, ONTARIO © Michael David Del Vecchio September 2010 i Abstract The vast majority of inland waters in Ontario have been designated as purely recreational fisheries. Environmental historians who study human-fish relations have demonstrated the influence of anglers in the establishment of fishing regulations and fisheries management policies that sought to maximize fish resources for sport fishing and fishing tourism. To achieve this goal, aquaculture programs were conducted throughout Ontario that artificially reared fish and planted them in lakes. For over a century, from approximately 1860-1960, the Ontario government relied on aquaculture as a blanket solution to all fishery problems. Over the past fifty years, fisheries science has questioned the ecological benefits of stocking programs. Stocking efforts in the province have been drastically reduced since the 1960s but have continued largely because of grass root initiatives from concerned anglers. Lake Ahmic is home to a small cottage community based out of the village of Magnetawan. The lake has been stocked with a variety of fish species for over a hundred years. In addition to this, several species have been accidentally introduced to Lake Ahmic altering its ecological balance. Between 1987 and 2006, a local angling organization was responsible for initiating and running a walleye-stocking program on Lake Ahmic. In 2006, to the disappointment of the local anglers and greater Magnetawan community, the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources canceled the stocking program.

  • Fishing Gear Associated with Global Marine Catches II. Trends in Trawling and Dredging
    Fisheries Research 79 (2006) 103–111 Fishing gear associated with global marine catches II. Trends in trawling and dredging R. Watson a,∗,C.Revengab,Y.Kurab a UBC Fisheries Centre, Aquatic Ecosystems Research Laboratory, 2202 Main Mall, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6T 1Z4 b World Resources Institute, 10 G Street, NE, Washington, DC 20002, USA Received 25 August 2005; received in revised form 28 December 2005; accepted 5 January 2006 Abstract A new method for associating global marine catch statistics with fishing gears has allowed the creation of maps which detail the changing use of fishing gears such as trawls and dredges from the 1950s to the present. These gears, often associated with high impacts on benthic communities, are associated with a wide range of demersal fish, molluscan and crustacean catch. The use of these gears has increased globally since the 1950s when it accounted for more than 40% of reported catches to a peak in most areas such as North America and Europe in the 1980s. This increase extended into the 1990s along the coast of Argentina particularly for squid. Dredging, usually associated with the catch of bivalves, often peaked later than trawling but had begun to decline in most areas by the 1990s. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

  • Food of Silver Hakem Red Hake and Other Fishes of Georges Bank And
    NAFO Sci. Coun. Studies, 7: 87-94 Food of Silver Hake, Red Hake and Other Fishes of Georges Bank and Adjacent Waters, 1968-74* V. I. Vinogradov Atlantic Research Institute of Marine Fisheries and Oceanography (AtlantNIRO) 5 Dmitry Donskoy Street, Kaliningrad, USSR Abstract Data on feeding of various pelagic, near-bottom and bottom fishes of Georges Bank and adjacent waters are examined. The species are grouped and discussed according to dietary similarities. Comparisons are made between the feeding spectra of silver hake, red hake, Atlantic herring, Atlantic mackerel, pollock, Atlantic cod, haddock, white hake, spiny dogfish, American angler, Atlantic sea raven, yellowtail flounder and American plaice. Although the feeding of silver hake and red hake is shown to be influenced by homologous ecological factors, production of these species depends on different ecological groups of food organisms, silver hake mainly on pelagic' forms and red hake mainly on benthic forms. Silver hake was found to be one of the most significant predators of young silver hake and red hake in the ecosystem of the region.
