  • 2017 Anglers Guide.Cdr
    Saskatchewan Anglers’ Guide 2017 saskatchewan.ca/fishing Free Fishing Weekends July 8 and 9, 2017 February 17, 18 and 19, 2018 Minister’s Message I would like to welcome you to a new season of sport fishing in Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan's fishery is a priceless legacy, and it is the ministry's goal to maintain it in a healthy, sustainable state to provide diverse benefits for the province. As part of this commitment, a portion of all angling licence fees are dedicated to enhancing fishing opportunities through the Fish and Wildlife Development Fund (FWDF). One of the activities the FWDF supports is the operation of Scott Moe the Saskatchewan Fish Culture Station, which plays a Minister of Environment key role in managing a number of Saskatchewan's sport fisheries. To meet the province's current and future stocking needs, a review of the station's aging infrastructure was recently completed, with a multi-year plan for modernization and refurbishment to begin in 2017. In response to the ongoing threat of aquatic invasive species, the ministry has increased its prevention efforts on several fronts, including increasing public awareness, conducting watercraft inspections and monitoring high- risk waters. I ask everyone to continue their vigilance against the threat of aquatic invasive species by ensuring that your watercraft and related equipment are cleaned, drained and dried prior to moving from one body of water to another. Responsible fishing today ensures fishing opportunities for tomorrow. I encourage all anglers to do their part by becoming familiar with this guide and the rules and regulations that pertain to your planned fishing activity.

    BIBLIOGRAPHY -ON THE LIMNOLOGY AND FISHERIES. OF CANADIAN FRESHWATERS. NO .''5 (REVISED). by H.F.NICHOLSON Great Lakes Biolimnology Laboratory, Canada Centre for Inland Waters, 867 Lakeshore Road, Burlington, Ontario. L7R 4A6 PREFACE This is a revised edition of Bibliography No.5, published in 1978 as Fish. Environm.Can., Fish.Mar.Serv., Techn.Rept., (804). Due to budget restrictions and the high cost of printing, combined with an expanding distribution list, it is no longer possible to publish this series as Technical Reports. Instead, each number will be issued in this present looseleaf form as an unpublished report of the Great Lakes Biolimnology Laboratory. Please note that those from outside Canada requesting copies of this series will be sent the Reference Indexes only. However, the Canadian Freshwater Features Section will be sent if specifically requested. This issue can be referenced as:- Nicholson, H.F. 1982. "Bibliography on the limnology and fisheries of Canadian freshwaters. No.5(revised)". Can.Dept.Fish.Oceans, Pacific & Freshw.Fish., Great Lakes Biolimnol.Lab., Unpubl.Rept. FORMAT The bibliography is divided into two sections:- (1). Reference Index Each of these references contains information on the limnology and fisheries of Canadian freshwaters. They are numbered and appear in numerical order. This enumeration is consecutive and continuous through the bibliography series. (2). Freshwater Feature Index This section is divided into alphabetical order of provinces and within each province the freshwater feature names are in alphabetical order. The coordinates (in minutes and degrees, latitude and longitude) are given for each feature except for British Columbia where, for the most part, the quadrilateral indexing system is used.
