Responses of wild freshwater fish to anthropogenic stressors in the Waikato River of New Zealand A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Waikato by David W. West Department of Biological Sciences The University of Waikato Hamilton, New Zealand 2007 Abstract To assess anthropogenic impacts of point-source and diffuse discharges on fish populations of the Waikato River, compare responses to different discharges and identify potential sentinel fish species, we sampled wild populations of brown bullhead catfish (Ameiurus nebulosus, (LeSueur, 1819)), shortfin eel (Anguilla australis Richardson, 1848), and common bully (Gobiomorphus cotidianus McDowall, 1975) in the Waikato River. Sites upstream and downstream of: geothermal; bleached kraft mill effluent (BKME); sewage and thermal point-source discharges were sampled. At each site, the population parameters, relative abundance, age structure and individual indices such as: condition factor; and organ (gonad, liver, and spleen) somatic weight ratios; and number and size of follicles per female were assessed.

  • Totally Oarsome…
    Leander New s Leander Club Newslette r Winter 2010 Totally Oarsome… Leander has had another very strong year in 2010. We have produced winning crews at every level and with the World Championships less than a week away, there is promise of yet more success for Leander athletes and coaches in New Zealand. These Championships are two months later than usual to fit in with the New Zealand summer, and as a result it seems strange to be reflecting on the season thus far when it is not yet finished. One of the positives of this situation is that it reduces the amount of winter training that many of us will have to do for the 2011 season! The most recent addition to the team is Beijing silver medallist Debbie Flood, who following a training camp in Germany has been confirmed as competing in the women’s quad - the boat in which she has twice won silver at successive Olympic Games.

  • Waikato River & Hydro Lakes
    Waikato River & Hydro Lakes Image Josh Willison E A S T E R N R1 E G I O N Waikato River Fishery The Waikato River flows out of Lake Taupō, through the central north island and Waikato regions before joining the sea south of Auckland at Port Waikato on the west coast. It is the longest river in NZ at about 425 km in length. A considerable length of the Waikato River flows within the Eastern Fish & Game region, and that portion also contains 5 hydro lakes. The Eastern region starts below Huka Falls near Taupō and ends just below Lake Maraetai. The river and its hydro lakes offer a huge amount of angling opportunity and many parts seldom see an angler. There are opportunities for trolling, fly and spin fishing, and bait fishing is also permitted on the Waikato River and its lakes. In summer when water temperatures rise excellent fishing can be had at the mouths of tributary streams where fish tend to congregate seeking cooler water conditions. As well as holding rainbow and brown trout the river and hydro lakes also contain other fish species in various areas including pest fish such as Rudd and carp and in some places catfish. If any of these species are caught anglers should kill them and dispose of them carefully and never transfer them to other waters. As the river and its lakes are used for hydro-power generation the water levels can fluctuate dramatically and without warning and due to this care is needed when on and around the river.
