  • Fishes of Maine
    " " h t. FISHES OF MAINE W. Harry Everhart Former Chief of Fisheries Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife - k Published by The Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife Maynard F. Marsh, Commissioner Augusta, Maine 1st Edition 1950 2d Edition 1958 2d Printing 1961 3d Edition 1966 4th Edition 1976 Published under Appropriation 4550 FOREWORD The Fishes of Maine is presented by the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife as a guide to fishermen in identifying the fish they catch and observe in our inland waters. The descriptions and life histories will perhaps add to the interest and enjoyment of the obser­ vations that fishermen make as they seek the many game fishes that live in the lakes and streams. Scientific study and management of Maine's inland fisheries have progressed rapidly since 1950 (date of publication of the 1st Edition of the Fishes of Maine) under the administrations of Commissioners Roland H. Cobb. Ronald T. Speers, George Buckman and Maynard F. Marsh. The combination of good men and proper working environment has resulted in many studies yielding more and more information about Maine fishes. Each fishery biologist, as he plans and conducts his research proj­ ects, usually concentrates more on the study of a single species. This concentration makes possible a more intimate understanding of the life histories of our important game fishes. Several of the biologists have helped in the preparation of this book, and their names appear with the life histories they prepared. All color photographs were made of live fish in an aquarium by Mr.

Rawat Babita Bantwanl, Dhyal Singhl and O.P. Gusain2 Received: 10.09.2011 Accepted: 15.11.2011 Abstract The history of introduction of brown trout in Garhwal Himalaya is 100 years. However, the scientific information on brown trout is grossly lacking. The present study is a part of investigation on various aspects of brown trout inhabiting the River Asiganga in Uttarkashi district of Uttarakhand. The status of brown trout was ascertained in River Asiganga and other reports from elsewhere in the region. The morphometric study was based on 253 fish specimens collected from River Asiganga. In addition to the 12 body measurements of the fish, red/orange and brown spots on body were also studied.

  • Arctic Char with Soft Polenta and Arugula
    ARCTIC CHAR WITH SOFT POLENTA AND ARUGULA Yield: 6 Servings TOTAL TIME: 45 minutes INGREDIENTS FOR POLENTA: • 1 quart water • 1 cup yellow polenta • ½ cup of ⅓ less fat cream cheese, or Neufchatel • Salt to taste FOR FISH: • ¼ cup olive oil • 6 arctic char fillets, 4 oz. each (or use salmon or trout) • ½ cup or more semolina flour for dredging • 3 cups baby spinach or arugula • 2 cloves garlic, finely sliced • 2 shallots, finely sliced • 1 cup flat leaf parsley leaves, chopped • Juice of 1½ lemons • Salt and pepper to taste PREPARATION 1. For Polenta: Bring salted water to boil. Sprinkle polenta into water, whisking as you sprinkle. Reduce heat to medium and simmer the polenta, stirring constantly until it is soft, about 30 min. or per package directions. Add the cream cheese and stir until fully melted into the polenta. Remove from heat, cover and keep warm. 2. For Fish: Season fish fillets on both sides with salt and pepper. Place semolina in a small, shallow dish. Dredge in semolina flour, shaking off excess. Discard left over flour. 3. In non-stick skillet, heat 2 Tbsp. of oil over medium heat. Carefully add the fish. Cook about 2 minutes per side, or until just opaque. 4. Divide polenta onto 6 plates. Top with a handful of spinach or arugula and place the hot fish on top of greens to slightly wilt them. 5. In the same pan the fish was cooked in, heat the remaining 2 Tbsp. oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallots and cook for about 20 seconds, until garlic begins to brown.
