Turkey hunters know best the Probiotics challenges of bringing in a bird and tout edge Frustrated the pain of being busted by one for deer Additives gaining in popularity for people, but not yet for wildlife By Ralph Winingham FOR LONE STAR OUTDOOR NEWS White-tailed deer breeders in Texas are always looking for an edge — some way to create bigger, better, healthier animals that will feed the demand for big bucks by thousands of trophy hunters every year. A potential factor into the big buck formula that has reached Texas in the past two years is probiotics, a mixture of naturally occurring enzymes com- bined with deer feed. Kirby Vanover, a nutritionist for Angelo Pellets, which supplies feed in San Angelo, said one product the com- pany sells is DeerZyme. The product contains seven enzymes that aid deer in digestion. “With ruminant animals, it really helps the efficiency of vegetable utili- zation,” Vanover said. Simply put, the product allows deer to get more out of what they eat, Vanover said.

  • The Use of a Roving Creel Survey to Monitor Exploited Coastal Fish Species in the Goukamma Marine Protected Area, South Africa
    The use of a Roving Creel Survey to monitor exploited coastal fish species in the Goukamma Marine Protected Area, South Africa by Carika Sylvia van Zyl A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters in Technoligae, Nature Conservation Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University 2011 i I, Carika Sylvia van Zyl (s208027504) hereby declare that the work in this document is my own. ii Abstract A fishery-dependant monitoring method of the recreational shore-based fishery was undertaken in the Goukamma Marine Protected Area (MPA) on the south coast of South Africa for a period of 17 months. The method used was a roving creel survey (RCS), with dates, times and starting locations chosen by stratified random sampling. The MPA was divided into two sections, Buffalo Bay and Groenvlei, and all anglers encountered were interviewed. Catch and effort data were collected and catch per unit effort (CPUE) was calculated from this. The spatial distribution of anglers was also mapped. A generalized linear model (GLM) was fitted to the effort data to determine the effects of month and day type on the variability of effort in each section. Fitted values showed that effort was significantly higher on weekends than on week days, in both sections. A total average of 3662 anglers fishing 21 428 hours annually is estimated within the reserve with a mean trip length of 5.85 hours. Angler numbers were higher per unit coastline length in Buffalo Bay than Groenvlei, but fishing effort (angler hours) was higher in Groenvlei. Density distributions showed that anglers were clumped in easily accessible areas and that they favored rocky areas and mixed shores over sandy shores.

  • Hypothetical Effects of Fishing Regulations in Murphy Flowage, Wisconsin
    ::if I 3 Dept. of Natura1 Reeour~ Technical li !J rary 3911 Fish Hatc.tl9fY Road FitchburR; Wl 53711 • ~97 / HYPOTHETICAL EFFECTS OF FISHING REGULATIONS IN MURPHY FLOWAGE, WISCONSIN Technical Bulletin No. 131 • Department of. Natural Resources • Madison, Wisconsin • 1982 ABSTRACT This paper summarizes the hypothetical effects of bag, season, and size limits on the harvest of panfish, northern pike, and largemouth bass in Murphy Flowage; Wisconsin. Complete angler records were obtained through a compulsory registration-type creel census for 15 years. There were no bag, season, or size limits in effect at any time during the study. The hypothetical reduction in harvest with various regulations was calcu­ lated from detailed harvest records. The present bag limits in effect in most of Wisconsin would have had little effect on the observed harvest in Murphy Flowage. A 50-fish daily bag limit on panfish in aggregate would have reduced the observed harvest 2.9% in summer and 13.8% in winter. A 5-fish daily bag on gamefish would have reduced the northern pike harvest 0:5% in summer and 1.5% in win­ ter, while the harvest of largemouth bass·would have been reduced 2.5% in summer, with no effect in winter. A year-round open season would have had very little effect on the har­ vest. A maximum of 7% of the northern pike and 4% of the largemouth bass were taken during the normal closed season, 1 March to the 1st Saturday of May. A later opening date could have a marked effect on the harvest, especially on largemouth bass since 50% of the annual harvest was taken by the end of June.

It is the intent to fish only the best Anglers and Skippers/Boat Captains (hereinafter referred to as Skippers) under regulations which will prove the winning team to be the best in the Tournament. 1.2. These fishing rules have been evolved internationally so that in their observance, every fish and angler should have a sporting chance. Captures in which the fish has not fought, or in which the fish has not had the chance to fight, except on the gaff, rope or in the boat, are not caught with the intent of these rules and do not reflect credit on the fish or the fisherman.

  • Fish Welfare in Recreational Fishing
    Chapter 19 Fish Welfare in Recreational Fishing Keno Ferter, Steven J. Cooke, Odd-Børre Humborstad, Jonatan Nilsson, and Robert Arlinghaus Abstract Recreational fishing is a popular activity around the globe, and fish welfare issues related to the activity have received increasing attention in some countries, particularly in central and northern Europe and Australia. This chapter offers an introduction to recreational fishing, reviews literature on fish welfare in relation to recreational fishing and provides an overview of potential biological impacts and ways to reduce such impacts. We first focus on the question on how to reduce impacts on the welfare of the fish during recreational fishing. Second, we describe two case studies highlighting that practical implications of the fish welfare discourse may be disjointed from the scientific information base and be rather about fundamental moral questions about the ethical acceptability of the activity per se. We end by providing an outlook on the future of recreational fishing in the light of the current fish welfare discourse. Keywords Best practice guidelines · Catch-and-release · Fish welfare · Function- based approach · Recreational fishing · Sublethal impacts Recreational fishing is a popular activity around the globe (Arlinghaus et al. 2015, 2019). Apart from the recognized biological and socio-economic importance of recreational fishing, fish welfare issues related to the activity have received increas- ing attention in some countries and in the academic literature (Huntingford et al. 2006; Arlinghaus et al. 2007a, b, 2012b; Cooke and Sneddon 2007; Volpato 2009; Arlinghaus and Schwab 2011).

  • Many Current Fishing Bag Limits Over 50 Years Old DNR Biologists Believe It’S Time They Were Reviewed
    Many current fishing bag limits over 50 years old DNR biologists believe it’s time they were reviewed By Tom Dickson In Minnesota, the bag limit for walleyes is six, for crappie it's 15, and for sunfish it's 30. Most anglers assume these numbers are based on sound biological fact and are meant to protect fish populations from overfishing. But the fact is, most bag limits were established so long ago that biologists aren’t entirely sure how they were devised. “In many cases, we just don’t know where the numbers came from,” says Jerry Grant, a fisheries research scientists at Brainerd. Some bag limits were established more than a half century ago. Because fishing technology and attitudes have changed so much since then, many anglers and fisheries biologists now wonder if these old limits have become outdated and need revision. What follows is a brief history of Minnesota bag limits and an overview of the changes in fishing since most bag limits were last changed. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, anglers could keep as many fish as they could catch. Back then, the state established a few legal fishing seasons—for example, you could not fish for brook trout between November 1 and March 31—and certain techniques, such as dynamite, were outlawed. But there was no bag limit. Fish populations seemed limitless. The first bag limit in Minnesota was set in 1905. The limit was 25 fish per day, in any combination of species. At the time, pollution and overfishing had begun to deplete fish from state waters.
