A Socio-Economic Evaluation of Sportsfishing Activity in Southern Alberta Interim Project Report INTROI)UCTION Recreational fishing is one of the most important recreational activities in Alberta. The report on Sports Fishing in Alberta, 1985, states that over 340,000 angling licences were purchased in the province and the total population of anglers exceeded 430,000. Approximately 5.4 million angler days were spent in Alberta and over $130 million was spent on fishing related activities. Clearly, sportsfishing is an important recreational activity and the fishery resource is the source of significant social benefits. A National Angler Survey is conducted every five years. However, the results of this survey are broad and aggregate in nature insofar that they do not address issues about specific sites. It is the purpose of this study to examine in detail the characteristics of anglers, and angling site choices, in the Southern region of Alberta. Fish and Wildlife agencies have collected considerable amounts of bio-physical information on fish habitat, water quality, biology and ecology.

  • 2013 Pinehurst Lake Report
    THE ALBERTA LAKE MANAGEMENT SOCIETY VOLUNTEER LAKE MONITORING PROGRAM 2013 Pinehurst Lake Report COMPLETED WITH SUPPORT FROM: Alberta Lake Management Society’s LakeWatch Program LakeWatch has several important objectives, one of which is to collect and interpret water quality data on Alberta Lakes. Equally important is educating lake users about their aquatic environment, encouraging public involvement in lake management, and facilitating cooperation and partnerships between government, industry, the scientific community and lake users. LakeWatch Reports are designed to summarize basic lake data in understandable terms for a lay audience and are not meant to be a complete synopsis of information about specific lakes. Additional information is available for many lakes that have been included in LakeWatch and readers requiring more information are encouraged to seek those sources. ALMS would like to thank all who express interest in Alberta’s aquatic environments and particularly those who have participated in the LakeWatch program. These people prove that ecological apathy can be overcome and give us hope that our water resources will not be the limiting factor in the health of our environment. Acknowledgements The LakeWatch program is made possible through the dedication of its volunteers. We would like to thank Samantha Sinclair, Matthew Warawa, and Amanda Lea with Lac La Biche County for their assistance with sampling in 2013. We would also like to thank Jared Ellenor, Nicole Meyers, and Elynne Murray who were summer technicians with ALMS in 2013. Program Coordinator Bradley Peter was instrumental in planning and organizing the field program. Technologists Chris Ware and Sarah Hustins were involved in the training aspects of the program.

  • Assessment of the Status of the Sport Fishery for Walleye at Pinehurst Lake, 1997
    Assessment of the Status of the Sport Fishery for Walleye at Pinehurst Lake, 1997. Conducted as part of the Walleye Monitoring Program (Project No. H96010) Prepared by Bill Patterson, Fisheries Section, Northeast Boreal Region, Alberta Conservation Association and M. G. Sullivan, Fisheries Section, Natural Resources Service, Alberta Environmental Protection March, 1998. ABSTRACT To recover or maintain Alberta's walleye fisheries, a new walleye management strategy was implemented in 1996. In 1996 the walleye fishery at Pinehurst Lake was classified as stable and a 43 cm (total length, TL) size limit in walleye was implemented in the sport fishery. In order to monitor the status of the walleye fishery at Pinehurst Lake, a creel survey was conducted during May to August 1997. Prior to this survey, the last creel survey at Pinehurst Lake was conducted during May to August 1994. The angling effort from 1994 to 1997 decreased 41% to 6.8 hours / ha. The estimated number of anglers declined 46% since 1994 to 7930 in 1997. The harvest of walleye from 1994 to 1997 decreased 51% to 2807 walleye. The catch rate on legal-sized walleye (>43 cm TL) had decreased from 0.127 walleye kept / hour in 1994 to 0.089 walleye kept / hour in 1997. The catch rate on sub-legal walleye (<43 cm TL) was estimated (utilizing a test fishery) to be moderate, at 0.44 walleye caught / hour. Evidence of recruitment is moderate. The strength of these young year-classes is likely a response due to the 43 cm TL minimum size limit. Based on the criteria used to classify walleye stocks in Alberta, the fishery at Pinehurst Lake should be reclassified from “stable” to “vulnerable”.

  • Western Grebe Surveys in Alberta 2016
    WESTERN GREBE SURVEYS IN ALBERTA 2016 The western grebe has been listed as a Threatened species in Alberta. A recent data compilation shows that there are approximately 250 lakes that have supported western grebes in Alberta. However, information for most lakes is poor and outdate d. Total counts on lakes are rare, breeding status is uncertain, and the location and extent of breeding habitat (emergent vegetation, usually bulrush) is usually unknown. We are seeking your help in gathering more information on western grebe populations in Alberta. If you visit any of the lakes listed below, or know anyone that does, we would appreciate as much detail as you can collect on the presence of western grebes and their habitat. Let us know in advance (if possible) if you are planning on going to any lakes, and when you do, e-mail details of your observations to [email protected]. SURVEY METHODS: Visit a lake between 1 May and 31 August with spotting scope or good binoculars. Surveys can be done from a boat, or vantage point(s) from shore. Report names of surveyors, dates, number of adults seen, and report on the approximate percentage of the lake area that this number represents. Record presence of young birds or nesting colonies, and provide any additional information on presence/location of likely breeding habitat, specific parts of the lake observed, observed threats to birds or habitat (boat traffic, shoreline clearing, pollution, etc.). Please report on findings even if no birds were seen. Lakes on the following page that are flagged with an asterisk (*) were not visited in 2015, and are priority for survey in 2016.

  • Mercury in Fish 2009-2013
    2016 Mercury in Fish In Alberta Water Bodies 2009–2013 For more information on Fish Consumption Advisories Contact: Health Protection Branch Alberta Health P.O. Box 1360, Station Main Edmonton, Alberta, T5J 1S6 Telephone: 1-780-427-1470 ISBN: 978-0-7785- 8283-0 (Report) ISBN: 978-0-7785- 8284-7 (PDF) 2016 Government of Alberta Alberta Health, Health Protection Branch Mercury in Fish in Alberta Water Bodies 2009 – 2013 February 2016 Executive Summary Mercury enters the environment through various natural processes and human activities. Methylmercury is transformed from inorganic forms of mercury via methylation by micro-organisms in natural waters, and can accumulate in some fish. Humans are exposed to very low levels of mercury directly from the air, water and food. Fish consumers may be exposed to relatively higher levels of methylmercury by eating mercury-containing fish from local rivers and lakes. Methylmercury can accumulate in the human body over time. Because methylmercury is a known neurotoxin, it is necessary to limit human exposure. From 2009 to 2013, the Departments of Environment and Parks (AEP) and Health (AH) initiated a survey of mercury levels in fish in selected water bodies in Alberta. These water bodies are extensively accessed by the public for recreational activities. This report deals with (1) concentrations of total mercury levels in various fish species collected from the water bodies in Alberta, (2) estimated exposures, (3) fish consumption limits, (4) fish consumption advisories, and (5) health benefits of fish consumption. The results indicate that: 1. Concentrations of total mercury in fish in the water bodies in Alberta were within the ranges for the same fish species from other water bodies elsewhere in Canada and the United States.

It supports a sport fishery for walleye and northern pike that receives moderate to high angling pressure. The area surrounding the lake is protected as Lakeland Recreation Area with the exception of two small privately owned sections on the east shoreline where a few cabins are situated. The campground within Pinehurst Recreation Area is located on the southwest shore. The campground includes 63 unserviced camping stalls, a day use area and a single boat launch. An expansion of the campground is currently in progress with completion expected in 2019. Truck access to the lake is limited to a gravel road into the campground, and some ATV trails. Most of the watershed is located to the northeast and largely occupied by the Cold Lake Air Weapons Range. Pinehurst Lake is closed to recreational angling from April 1 – May 15 each year. The portion north of a line drawn from the easternmost point of land in NW19-65-09-W4 easterly to the westernmost point of land in NE19- 65-09-W4 locally known as Snug Cove remains closed throughout the year.

    Assessment of the Status of the Sport Fishery for Northern Pike at Pinehurst Lake, 2000. B. Patterson Conducted as part of the Alberta Conservation Associations Sportfisheries Monitoring Program, NE Region September 2001 ABSTRACT To recover or maintain Alberta's northern pike (Esox lucius) fisheries, a new pike management strategy was implemented in 1999. In 1999, the pike fishery at Pinehurst Lake was classified as vulnerable (stable-recreational) and a 63 cm maximum total length (TL max) minimum size limit, 3 fish daily limit on pike was implemented in the sport fishery. In order to assess the status of the pike fishery at Pinehurst Lake, a creel survey was conducted during May to August 2000. During the 2000 survey, the number of anglers utilizing the creel site was 1,572. The estimated number of anglers during the survey in 2000 was 5,128 (including a derby during June). Angling pressure (angler-hours / hectare, hrs / ha) was 5.4. This is a 22% decrease in angling pressure since 1997 (6.9 hrs / ha) and a 48% decrease since the 1994 survey (10.40 hrs / ha). Seventy-five pike were observed harvested during the survey. Seven of the observed pike were sublegal size. The estimated harvest of legal-size pike (fish >63 cm TL max) was 334. The observed harvest rate on legal-size pike was 0.017 fish / hr. The reported release rate on pike >63 cm TL max was 0.016 fish / hr. The reported release rate on pike <63 cm TL max (sublegal size) was 0.449 fish / hr. The estimated release rate on sublegal size pike was 0.257 fish / hour.
