HATCHERY PLANTINGS OF BROWN TROUT LAKE TROUT RAI NB( TROUT AND TAKE WHITEFISH IN NOVA SCOTIA, AND SUBSEQUENT ANGLING SUCCESS DI7,TRI3Y7ION OF BROZN TROUT (SALVO TRUTTA) IN NOVA SCC.. - Introduction Brown trout were introduced to the Maritimes Region in 1921 (Catt, 1950), and the first recorded hatchery distribution of brown trout in Nova Scotia was to Milford Haven River, Guysborough County, in 1923. Subsecuent plantings. have been made in numerous systems to augment sports fish populations, but the policy has generally been to stock brown trout in rivers where few or no Atlantic salmon have been angled. There :?.re also indications that brown trout populations have become estIlished in unstocked rivers through migration of sea-run trout from adjacent systems. Lein and Scott (1966) recorded distribution of brown trout in the following Nova Scotia river systems: Maccan River (Harrison Lake), Cumberland County; Clam Harbour River, a, ys- borough River and Salmon River, Guysborough County; Corn•:f - llis River, Kings County; Merigomish area (which includes Barn ys, French and Sutherland's Rivers), Pictou CoUnty; and Mersey River (which includes Kejimkujik Lake), Queens County. This report summarizes the known distribution of brcn trout in Nova Scotia as determined from hatchery distribu t ion records and angling records kept by the Federal Departmec:t of Fisheries, Halifax. Shubenacadie River and Stewiacke River are listed searately because the Stewiacke confluence with Shubenacadie River in. tidal water. Each river system has been attributed to a '.ounty depending on its point of entry to the sea. Distribution 1. Hatchery Plantinp;s: Brown trout have been distributed from hatcheric:: to 28 river systems in Nova Scotia (Appendix 1). - Plantings have been made in Southwest Brook, Broad Cove Brook, Middle River, Round Pond, River John, Harris Lake and Snarl Lake Brook, but no records are available of brown trout being angled in t',1ese rivers. 2. Anglinz Records: River systems in which brown trout have been angled correspond clOsely with those that have been stocked from hatcheries (Appendix 1). CC.F• Y ' COPY! "-- - ■••■ 1") %CPO 'XERO , CC, Y 'COPY 2 Migrations of brown trout have apparently taken )lace from Waurrh River to French River; Stewiacke River to Shu:),:nacadie River; Clam Harbour, Guysborough or Salmon Rivers to Goo Harbour River; and Roseway River to Clyde River. River Phillip has not been stocked with brown trout nor is it very close to any system known to have a brown trout ppulation. It is possible, however, that escapement of fish from Coquid Hatchery (one of the brown trout rearing hatcheries) on ver Phillip may have been sufficient for the species to esta .0•ish itself in the system. Discussion Brown trout are well known for their shyness, and tl!eir ability to avoid capture and in some cases detection in river. Populations could become established in a system through , Agration from an adjacent river and their presence go unrecorded. A com- plete record of brown trout can only be obtained by exteive sampling in all river systems, and this summary is certally not a complete record of brown trout distribution in Nova Scotia.

    Barriers to Fish Passage in Nova Scotia the Evolution of Water Control Barriers in Nova Scotia’S Watershed

    Dalhousie University- Environmental Science Barriers to Fish Passage in Nova Scotia The Evolution of Water Control Barriers in Nova Scotia’s Watershed By: Gillian Fielding Supervisor: Shannon Sterling Submitted for ENVS 4901- Environmental Science Honours Abstract Loss of connectivity throughout river systems is one of the most serious effects dams impose on migrating fish species. I examine the extent and dates of aquatic habitat loss due to dam construction in two key salmon regions in Nova Scotia: Inner Bay of Fundy (IBoF) and the Southern Uplands (SU). This work is possible due to the recent progress in the water control structure inventory for the province of Nova Scotia (NSWCD) by Nova Scotia Environment. Findings indicate that 586 dams have been documented in the NSWCD inventory for the entire province. The most common main purpose of dams built throughout Nova Scotia is for hydropower production (21%) and only 14% of dams in the database contain associated fish passage technology. Findings indicate that the SU is impacted by 279 dams, resulting in an upstream habitat loss of 3,008 km of stream length, equivalent to 9.28% of the total stream length within the SU. The most extensive amount of loss occurred from 1920-1930. The IBoF was found to have 131 dams resulting in an upstream habitat loss of 1, 299 km of stream length, equivalent to 7.1% of total stream length. The most extensive amount of upstream habitat loss occurred from 1930-1940. I also examined if given what I have learned about the locations and dates of dam installations, are existent fish population data sufficient to assess the impacts of dams on the IBoF and SU Atlantic salmon populations in Nova Scotia? Results indicate that dams have caused a widespread upstream loss of freshwater habitat in Nova Scotia howeverfish population data do not exist to examine the direct impact of dam construction on the IBoF and SU Atlantic salmon populations in Nova Scotia.

Mossman2 127 Harding Avenue, Amherst, Nova Scotia B4H 2A8, Canada departm ent of Physics, Engineering and Geoscience, Mount Allison University, 67 York Street, Sackville, New Brunswick E4L 1E6, Canada Date Received April 27, 1998 Date Accepted December 15,1998 Vigorous quasi-equilibrium conditions characterize interactions between land and sea in macrotidal regions. Ephemeral on the scale of geologic time, estuaries around the Bay of Fundy progressively infill with sediments as eustatic sea level rises, forcing fringing salt marshes to form and reform at successively higher levels. Although closely linked to a regime of tides with large amplitude and strong tidal currents, salt marshes near the Bay of Fundy rarely experience overflow. Built up to a level about 1.2 m lower than the highest astronomical tide, only very large tides are able to cover the marshes with a significant depth of water. Peak tides arrive in sets at periods of 7 months, 4.53 years and 18.03 years. Consequently, for months on end, no tidal flooding of the marshes occurs. Most salt marshes are raised to the level of the average tide of the 18-year cycle. The number of tides that can exceed a certain elevation in any given year depends on whether the three main tide-generating factors peak at the same time. Marigrams constructed for the Shubenacadie and Cornwallis river estuaries, Nova Scotia, illustrate how the estuarine tidal wave is reshaped over its course, to form bores, and varies in its sediment-carrying and erosional capacity as a result of changing water-surface gradients.

    Placenaming on Cape Breton Island A different view from the sea: placenaming on Cape Breton Island William Davey Cape Breton University Sydney NS Canada [email protected] ABSTRACT : George Story’s paper A view from the sea: Newfoundland place-naming suggests that there are other, complementary methods of collection and analysis than those used by his colleague E. R. Seary. Story examines the wealth of material found in travel accounts and the knowledge of fishers. This paper takes a different view from the sea as it considers the development of Cape Breton placenames using cartographic evidence from several influential historic maps from 1632 to 1878. The paper’s focus is on the shift names that were first given to water and coastal features and later shifted to designate settlements. As the seasonal fishing stations became permanent settlements, these new communities retained the names originally given to water and coastal features, so, for example, Glace Bay names a town and bay. By the 1870s, shift names account for a little more than 80% of the community names recorded on the Cape Breton county maps in the Atlas of the Maritime Provinces . Other patterns of naming also reflect a view from the sea. Landmarks and boundary markers appear on early maps and are consistently repeated, and perimeter naming occurs along the seacoasts, lakes, and rivers. This view from the sea is a distinctive quality of the island’s names.

From its romantic age to its recent growth, Nova Scotia, rich, vivid, and colorful in tradition, has had a vibrant and fascinating history, but although Nova Scotia has been relatively rich in the wealth of its historical material, the condition of its public records and historical documents left much to be desired over long stretches of time.
