A Literature Review and Bibliography. Fish. Mar. Serv. Res. Dev. Tech. Rep. 529, 68 pp. The reproduction and early life of the yellow walleye, Stizostedion vitreum vitreum, is reviewed. Walleye commonly spawn in riffles of streams or along shorelines of lakes. Although they have been reported to spawn on a wide variety of substrata it appears they prefer clean gravel bottoms at depths less than 1.5 metres. In impoundments, walleye are apparently less influenced by water levels during the spawning period than are other "shallow water" spawners. Nonetheless, fairly stable or slightly rising levels during spawning and incubation are recommended if spawning is to be successful. Among the many hazards to reproduction, the silting over of spawning beds due to erosion along lakeshores and flooded streams is probably the major cause of spawning failure in impoundments. Growth and numbers could increase, but will be dependent upon the availability of forage species and spawning habitat. Cet ouvrage etudie la reproduction et le debut de la vie du dare jaune, Stizostedion vitreum vitreum. Le dare jaune fraye generalement dans les bas-fonds des rivieres ou pres du bard des lacs. Bien que les etudes montrent qu'il fraye a des profondeurs tres variables, il prefere fonds de gravier propres a des profondeurs inferieures a 1.5 metre. Dans les frayeres artificielles, le niveau de l'eau semble mains influencer le dare jaune pendant la saison du frai que les autres especes qui frayent dans les "hauts fonds." Neanmoins, pour que le frai soit bon, il est preferable que le niveau de l'eau soit assez stable ou monte legerement pendant le frai et la periode d'incubation. Parmi les nombreux facteurs qui peuvent gener la reproduction dans les frayeres artificielles, la principale est probablement ie recouvrement des frayeres par suite de !'erosion qui se produit le long des rives des lacs et des rivieres en crue. La croissance et la multiplication du dare jaune depend de la quantite des poissons dont il se nourrit et du nombre d'endroits qui peuvent servir de frayeres. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT i TABLE OF CONTENTS ii LIST OF TABLES iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS iv INTRODUCTION 1 REPRODUCTION AND EARLY LIFE HISTORY OF THE YELLOW WALLEYE Stizostedion vit~eum vit~eum (Mitchill) Place of spawning 2 Time of spawning 2 Spawning grounds 2 Sexual maturity 5 Fecundity 8 Sex ratios 8 Sexual dimorphism 11 Migration 11 Homing 11 Spawning behaviour 12 DEVELOPMENT OF EGGS AND.LARVAE Description 13 Fertilization 14 Incubation period and hatching 14 Early life 15 Mortality of eggs and larvae 16 FACTORS AFFECTING REPRODUCTION Temperature 16 Water levels and discharge 17 Quality of spawning sites 17 Water quality 18 Siltation 18 Pollution 18 Predation 19 Summary 19 EFFECTS OF IMPOUNDMENT ON WALLEYE REPRODUCTION Sexual maturity 20 Fecundity 20 Migration 20 Water temperature 21 Egg properties 21 Spawning grounds 21 Water level regulation and discharge rate 22 Siltation 24 Predation 24 Summary 24 WALLEYE POPULATIONS AND IMPOUNDMENT Population size 25 Food supply 26 Growth 27 iii Water level regulation 29 Distribution 29 Summary 30 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF YELLOW WALLEYE - REPRODUCTION AND EARLY LIFE 31 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF YELLOW WALLEYE - IMPOUNDMENT LITERATURE 50 ADDITIONAL CITATIONS 68 iv LIST OF TABLES TABLE 1.

The report summarizes the available information on the repro­ duction and success of yellow walleye populations in reservoirs. Spawning in natural waters is also emphasized in assessing environmental requirements. 2 REPRODUCTION AND EARLY LIFE HISTORY OF THE YELLOW WALLEYE, STIZOSTEDION VITREUM VITREUM (MITCHILL) The walleye has a very extensive distribution, occurring as far north as the Mackenzie Delta and south down to Texas. However, most of the published materials dealing with reservoir impoundment originate from southern regions where the majority of the walleye populations are introductions and/or lake spawners. Nonetheless, in Canada, the basic biology of this species has been well studied, although there exists little data in relation to hydroelectric develop­ ment and reproduction. Place of Spawning Walleye commonly spawn in the rapids of streams, shallow offshore reefs, or along shorelines of lakes. Some populations are also known to spawn in marshes (Priegel, 1970). Time of Spawning Spawning occurs in the spring or early summer, depending on latitude and water temperature. Spawning throughout the walleye range may begin in early March or as late as June (see Table 1). Normally, walleye begin spawning at about the time of ice break-up in a lake, at water temperatures of 6.7 to 8.9 0 C, but have been known to spawn over a temperature range of 5.6 to 11.10 C (Scott and Crossman, 1973). Spawning Grounds The types of spawning areas utilized by walleye have been described by numerous .workers, among them; Bean (1903), Dymond (1926), Derback (194 7), Eschmeyer (1950), Rawson (1957), Niemuth et al. (1959), Johnson (1961), Ellis and Giles (1965), Regier et al. (1969) and Priegel (1970). Walleye have been reported to spawn on a wide variety of substrata, although it appears that walleye select gravel bottom for spawning when it is available (see Table 2). For example, Eschmeyer Table 1. Time and temperature of walleye spawning.
