Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment April – June, 1997 1997 Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment April – June, 1997 Prepared by: Brian Lucko and Glenn Todd October, 1997 Northwest Boreal Region Alberta Conservation Association 1 1997 Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment Abstract In the spring of 1997, the Alberta Conservation Association conducted a study to confirm the presence of spawning walleye (Stizostedion vitreum) in six tributaries and at four shoreline areas within Lesser Slave Lake in northern Alberta. The six tributaries were the Swan River, Driftpile River, Marten River, Assineau River, Strawberry Creek and Mission Creek. The four shoreline areas include Joussard townsite, Giroux Bay (Faust townsite), Spruce Point Park, and mouth of the Driftpile River. Walleye were captured by electrofishing (primary method) and in some instances, gill netting. When spawning walleye were located, the site was revisited and kick sampling conducted to collect walleye eggs. Thirty kick sampling sites were established during this survey. Electrofishing produced 138 spawning walleye in the lower section of Strawberry Creek. The Driftpile River and Assineau River produced 7 walleye and 1 walleye respectively. No walleye were found in the Swan River and Marten River. A genetic test indicated that walleye eggs were found in Strawberry Creek and at 3 shoreline sites within Lesser Slave Lake: 1) Joussard, 2) Giroux (Faust) Bay, and 3) Spruce Point Park.

As a result, opportunities for the commercial development of shoreline areas are also increasing (Collett and Rhodes 1995). Commercial as well as recreational development around the lake and tributaries can have negative impacts on walleye (Stizostedion vitreum) spawning habitat. Prior to 1995 walleye spawning in Lesser Slave Lake had only been documented on the northwest end of the lake with most walleye concentrating in the South Heart River system (Collett and Rhodes 1995). Traditional walleye spawning grounds are the rocky areas in white water below impassable falls and dams in river, or boulder, to coarse-gravel shoals of lakes (Scott and Crossman, 1973). Studies conducted in the late 70’s and early 80’s ( Dietz, 1979, 1982; Dietz and Tulman, 1981; Berry, 1979, 1981; O’Neil, 1983) indicated that Buffalo Bay and the lower South Heart River are probably the main walleye spawning grounds for Lesser Slave Lake. Hartman (1957) felt that the lower 5 km of the Grouard Channel was the likely spawning ground. However, none of these studies found large aggregations of female walleye. Also, these studies concentrated their efforts on Buffalo Bay and South Heart River. Collett and Rhodes (1995) showed marked use of inshore areas for spawning by walleye. From 1989 to 1993, the spring fishery on the west basin of Lesser Slave Lake averaged 675 kilograms of walleye per year (Alberta Environmental Protection – file data). In 1995, walleye catches during the west basin spring fishery rose dramatically to 3,950 kgs and then to 4,431 kgs in 1996 (file data). The alarming number of pre-spawn walleye, captured during the 1995 and 1996 spring commercial fisheries, prompted the confirmation that walleye are utilizing lakeshore and tributary habitats on Lesser Slave Lake for spawning purposes. Possible reasons why there is an increased use of lakeshore habitats include over utilization of the traditional spawning areas (South Heart River and Grouard Channel) by the expanding walleye population or that the spawning stock has been adversely affected by the large silt loads in the South Heart

Accomplishments • Supported the need for the new High Prairie Health Complex, bringing services closer to where people live. • Recommended the need for an EMS ambulance garage in Wabasca. • Advocated for increased transportation options for those in rural areas and worked with AHS leadership to bring forward these concerns (ongoing). • Partnered with AHS to host a Community Conversation in High Prairie. Stakeholders engaged in discussion about health care successes, challenges and opportunities for future partnerships. Our role and objectives Everything we do is about improving the health and wellness of Albertans, no matter what part of the province they live in. We: • Are a group of volunteers focused on listening to your thoughts and ideas on health services to help AHS enhance care locally and province wide. • Develop partnerships between the province’s diverse communities and AHS. • Provide feedback about what is working well within the health care system and suggest areas for improvement. • Promote opportunities for members of our local communities to get engaged. Join us - your voice matters There are a number of opportunities to participate, visit ahs.ca and search Health Advisory Councils for more info: • Attend an upcoming council meeting to hear feedback, offer comments, and ask questions.
