  • Lake Mattamuskeet Frequently Asked Questions
    1 Lake Mattamuskeet Frequently Asked Questions Since so many of these questions refer to monitoring activities in the Lake and Pamlico Sound, you may want to reference the following pages: o Summary of Lake Monitoring activities: http://nc.water.usgs.gov/projects/mattamuskeet/ o Summary of Bell Island Pier activities: http://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=f52ab347d5e84ccc921b 75c34fea42d5&extent=-77.5214,34.7208,-75.2252,36.3212 1. How deep is the lake? Lake depth varies from a few inches to five feet, with an average depth ranging from two to three feet depending on the season. Water levels are deepest in late fall, winter, early spring and during years with above average rainfall due to evaporation and precipitation. The deepest portions are located in the northwest portion of the lake. (see bathymetric map below). You can access the current water levels by visiting the USGS website (East and West) for Lake Mattamuskeet. Updated 10/12/16 2 2. Why is the lake so high/low? Lake levels fluctuate on a daily, seasonal and yearly basis. Water levels are primarily determined by climatic conditions. Generally, seasonal lake levels follow a pattern of being lower in the summer due to high evaporation rates and higher in fall, winter and spring due to lower evaporation rates and greater precipitation. Lake levels will increase by a few inches after a heavy rain. During wet years with lots of precipitation, water levels will rise; during drought years, water levels will fall. You can access current water levels by visiting the USGS website for Lake Mattamuskeet (East and West).

  • Muskellunge: a Michigan Resource
    Muskellunge: A Michigan Resource The muskellunge, or musky, is a tremendous game fish native to the lakes and streams of Michigan. The musky also is a fish of many myths regarding its’ appetite, size and elusiveness. The stories about muskies portray a fish feeding on anything that moves and can fit down their tooth-filled jaws…yet believed to be so difficult to catch that the musky is called “the fish of 10,000 casts.” Here, we briefly explore the mythical, legendary and genuine muskellunge. IDENTIFICATION Muskellunge are members of the esocid family of fish, which also includes the northern pike. This particular family of fish, technically called Esocidae, share similar characteristics such as long thin bodies and soft-rayed fins. These fish have large mouths full of sharp teeth. Muskellunge and pike are identified as piscivores, which means their primary diet is fish. Though similar in appearance, muskellunge tend to achieve larger sizes than northern pike. The musky’s coloration is one of dark stripes, or dark spots, on a light background. Northern pike, in contrast, usually have light, bean-shaped spots on a dark background. The shape of the tail fin is a good method of identification as a musky’s is pointed and the tail fin of a pike is rounded. Another key characteristic for identification is the presence or absence of scales on the cheeks and gill covers. Muskies only have scales on the upper half of the cheek and gill cover. Like the muskellunge, the northern pike gill cover has scales on the upper half, but the cheek is fully scaled.

  • Opinion Why Do Fish School?
    Current Zoology 58 (1): 116128, 2012 Opinion Why do fish school? Matz LARSSON1, 2* 1 The Cardiology Clinic, Örebro University Hospital, SE -701 85 Örebro, Sweden 2 The Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institute, SE-171 77 Stockholm, Sweden Abstract Synchronized movements (schooling) emit complex and overlapping sound and pressure curves that might confuse the inner ear and lateral line organ (LLO) of a predator. Moreover, prey-fish moving close to each other may blur the elec- tro-sensory perception of predators. The aim of this review is to explore mechanisms associated with synchronous swimming that may have contributed to increased adaptation and as a consequence may have influenced the evolution of schooling. The evolu- tionary development of the inner ear and the LLO increased the capacity to detect potential prey, possibly leading to an increased potential for cannibalism in the shoal, but also helped small fish to avoid joining larger fish, resulting in size homogeneity and, accordingly, an increased capacity for moving in synchrony. Water-movements and incidental sound produced as by-product of locomotion (ISOL) may provide fish with potentially useful information during swimming, such as neighbour body-size, speed, and location. When many fish move close to one another ISOL will be energetic and complex. Quiet intervals will be few. Fish moving in synchrony will have the capacity to discontinue movements simultaneously, providing relatively quiet intervals to al- low the reception of potentially critical environmental signals. Besides, synchronized movements may facilitate auditory grouping of ISOL. Turning preference bias, well-functioning sense organs, good health, and skillful motor performance might be important to achieving an appropriate distance to school neighbors and aid the individual fish in reducing time spent in the comparatively less safe school periphery.

  • Cowanesque Lake Tioga County
    Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission Biologist Report Cowanesque Lake Tioga County 2017 Crappie Survey Area 4 biologists used trap nets to sample crappies at Cowanesque Lake during the week of May 1, 2017. Our goal was to determine how the Crappie population responded to Alewife invasion. We set 9 trap nets that caught 619 Black Crappie and 30 White Crappie. The Black Crappie ranged from 2.0 to 14.9 inches long (Figure 1). Most were small but 18 individuals (3%) exceeded 10 inches. Most likely, the presence of Alewife influences Black Crappie size distribution at Cowanesque Lake. When small, Crappies have a hard time competing with Alewife for planktonic food and so grow slowly. This process accounts for the high percentage of small fish in the population. However, once an individual gets large enough to feed on Alewife, its growth rate rapidly increases. This process accounts for the low percentage of large fish in the population. White Crappie was a new species record for Cowanesque Lake. Their population originated from a single Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission stocking of 45,000 fingerlings in 2012. They only represented 5% of the total Crappie catch but they were reproducing in the lake. White Crappie growth was faster than Black Crappie growth. Measurements showed that 30% of the White Crappie we caught exceeded 10 inches. The complete list of fish we caught in 2017 is in Table 1. It’s important to note that we only targeted Crappie at Cowanesque Lake so catches of other species are not representative of their populations. That said, the nine trap nets did catch 5 tiger muskellunge ranging from 37.0 to 44.9 inches long.
