  • Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment April – June, 1997
    1997 Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment April – June, 1997 Prepared by: Brian Lucko and Glenn Todd October, 1997 Northwest Boreal Region Alberta Conservation Association 1 1997 Lesser Slave Lake Walleye Spawning Assessment Abstract In the spring of 1997, the Alberta Conservation Association conducted a study to confirm the presence of spawning walleye (Stizostedion vitreum) in six tributaries and at four shoreline areas within Lesser Slave Lake in northern Alberta. The six tributaries were the Swan River, Driftpile River, Marten River, Assineau River, Strawberry Creek and Mission Creek. The four shoreline areas include Joussard townsite, Giroux Bay (Faust townsite), Spruce Point Park, and mouth of the Driftpile River. Walleye were captured by electrofishing (primary method) and in some instances, gill netting. When spawning walleye were located, the site was revisited and kick sampling conducted to collect walleye eggs. Thirty kick sampling sites were established during this survey. Electrofishing produced 138 spawning walleye in the lower section of Strawberry Creek. The Driftpile River and Assineau River produced 7 walleye and 1 walleye respectively. No walleye were found in the Swan River and Marten River. A genetic test indicated that walleye eggs were found in Strawberry Creek and at 3 shoreline sites within Lesser Slave Lake: 1) Joussard, 2) Giroux (Faust) Bay, and 3) Spruce Point Park.

It was a great honour and a pleasure getting to know each and every one of you and to listen to the Elders at Driftpile First Nation. I would also like to apologize for the delay in giving back to you the life stories you shared with me. This work could not have seen the light of day without my mentor, Thibault Martin, your work and ethics have inspired me since the very beginning. Thank you so much for believing in me and giving me many opportunities that will forever change my life. Jo-Ann Bellerose played a major part in the success of these life stories and thus, in my master’s thesis. Her hard work, her dedication and her spirit made my stay in Alberta unforgettable. Thank you so much for everything you have done and most of all for being someone I can call a friend in spite of the distance. I have learned a great many things from you. Indirectly, thank you to Rodney Chalifoux for directing me towards her and letting me work with the members of the community. I am also appreciative of his great generosity towards my family and me.

  • The Fish and Fisheries of the Athabasca River Basin
    THE FISH AND FISHERIES OF THE ATHABASCA RIVER BASIN Their Status and Environmental Requirements Ron R. Wallace, Ph.D. Dominion Ecological Consulting, Ltd. and Peter J. McCart, Ph.D. Aquatic Environments Ltd. for Planning Division Alberta Environment March 31, 1984 PREFACE Thi s report was prepared by consul tants supervi sed by Bryan Kemper for Planning Division of Alberta Environment, and Dave Rimmer for Fish and Wildlife Division of Alberta Energy and Natural Resources. The Fisheries Overview series of reports have been commissioned to summarize known data to assist river basin planning studies and assist in the planning of new studies with the appropriate management agencies. The opinions expressed in this report are based upon written and verbal i nformati on provi ded to the consultant and therefore do not necessarily represent those of Alberta Environment. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The information presented here reviews what is currently known of fish ecology and production of the Athabasca Basin, and includes discussions of fish production, sport and commercial use of fish popul ati ons, and alternative opportuniti es for recreational fi shi ng in the rivers of the Athabasca Basin. Fisheries management objectives for the basin rivers and data gaps in existing knowledge of fish and fisheries are also discussed. In addition, water quality criteria for the protection of fish and aquatic life have been referenced, and, where possible, stream flows which affect fish populations have been included. The Athabasca Basin accounts for 23% of the land area of Alberta. For the purposes of this report, the basin has been divided into 10 sub-basins: four mainstem sub-basins, and six tributary sub-basins.
