Large-sized fish are ecologically important and valued for social and economic reasons. Following widespread collapses from angling overharvest, the densities of Walleyes Sander vitreus in Alberta’s lakes increased rapidly with large- minimum-size limits.

    Domestic Fishing Licence Conditions for 2020-2021 This document and the rules within are effective April 1, 2020 The holder of a free-of-charge domestic fishing license can harvest fish for food for themselves and members of their immediate household from eligible waters listed below, using a gill net or rod and reel. Alberta's sportfishing rules (seasons, sizes and bag limits of fish) apply to all waterbodies that are not listed in the Domestic Fishing Licence Conditions (attachment to Domestic Fishing Licence). Fishing with gill nets Gill nets can be lawfully set by licenced users (i.e., First Nations people, Métis harvesters, and researchers). Nets must be visibly marked at each end with a 1 metre stake or spar buoy bearing the applicable licence number. See General and Specific rules for gillnetting below. If the nets are not marked, or the presence of a net seems suspicious (for example, set during a closed season), please call your local Fish and Wildlife Office or Report A Poacher at 1-800-642-3800. Specific rules for gillnetting See list and maps of waterbodies below with specific rules for gillnetting. If a waterbody is not identified on the list below, it is not eligible for gillnetting under the authority of a Domestic Fishing Licence. General rules for gillnetting 1. No gillnetting in waters closed to all fishing. 2. No spring closure unless specified for a lake or river. See table starting on page 3. 3. A single gill net of no more than 95 metres (104 yards) in length of the specified minimum mesh size (not less than or NLT) listed for the lake or river.

  • 2014 Iosegun Lake Report
    THE ALBERTA LAKE MANAGEMENT SOCIETY VOLUNTEER LAKE MONITORING PROGRAM 2014 Iosegun Lake Report LAKEWATCH IS MADE POSSIBLE 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 Cam, Carol, Jim, Chase, Brian, and Colton Lamb for their assistance with sampling Iosegun Lake in 2014. We would also like to thank Jackson Woren, Brittany Kereliuk, and Kara MacAulay who were summer technicians with ALMS in 2014. Program Coordinator Bradley Peter was instrumental in planning and organizing the field program. Mike Bilyk was involved in the training aspects of the program.

    FRAUi0CARuoN, A'oi . 9, 1967, P. 156-197] GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF CANADA RADIOCARBON DATES VI J. A. LOWDON, J. G. FYLES, and W. BLAKE, JR.* Geological Survey of Canada, Ottawa, Canada INTRODUCTION Both the 2-L counter, described in GSC I, and the 5-L counter (GSC IV) were operated routinely during the past year. Approximately half of the determinations reported here were obtained from each coun- ter. The 5-L counter was operated mainly at 1 atm. Again all age calculations have been carried out monthly by an I.B.M. 1620 computer, and are based on a C14 half-life of 5568 ± 30 yr and 0.95 of the activity of the NBS oxalic-acid standard. Ages are quoted in years before 1950. Age errors include: counting errors of sample, background, and standard; error in the half-life of C14; and an error term to account for the average variation of ± 1.5% in the C14 concen- tration of the biosphere during the past 1100 yr. Finite ages are based on the 2 r criterion and "Infinite" ages on the 4Q criterion (GSC II).. No changes have been made in the preparation and purification techniques described in GSC IV. Average background and standard counting rates over the past 12 months are listed in Tables 1 and 2. The monthly average background count is made up of 4 individual daily counts. During the 12-month period, 12 different background preparations were counted in the 2-L counter, and 10 in the 5-L counter.
