To that end, we are working with the States, Tribes, other Federal agencies and our many partners in the private sector to identify, prioritize and focus our efforts in a manner that is most complementary to their efforts, consistent with the mission of our agency, and within the funding resources available. At the very heart of our efforts is the desire to be transparent and accountable and, to that end, we present this Region 3 Annual Fisheries Accomplishment Report for Fiscal Year 2004. This report captures our commitments from the Region 3 Fisheries Program Operational Plan, Fiscal Years 2004 & 2005.

  • Lake Texoma State Park Resource Management Plan Marshall County, Oklahoma
    Lake Texoma State Park Resource Management Plan Marshall County, Oklahoma Lowell Caneday, Ph.D. 6/30/2017 Fatemeh (Tannaz) Soltani, Ph.D. Chang-Heng (Hank) Yang This page intentionally left blank. i Acknowledgements The authors acknowledge the assistance of numerous individuals in the preparation of this Resource Management Plan (RMP). On behalf of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department’s Division of State Parks, staff members were extremely helpful in providing access to information and in sharing of their time. The essential staff providing assistance for the development of the RMP included Julie Roach, manager of Lake Texoma State Park. Assistance was also provided by Kris Marek, Doug Hawthorne, Don Schafer and Ron McWhirter – all from the Oklahoma City office of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department. Merle Cox, Regional Manager of the Southeastern Region of Oklahoma State Parks also attended these meetings and assisted throughout the project. This RMP supplements and updates an earlier document from 2009. Due to the events of the time, the 2009 RMP focused on other possible properties that could be considered for expansion and development within the Oklahoma State Park system. Given the events and circumstances present in 2017, this RMP focuses on the future of the properties remaining within the boundaries of the extant Lake Texoma State Park. The October 2016 kick-off meeting followed critical discussions between the Commissioners of the Land Office (CLO), OTRD, Pointe Vista, and other parties regarding properties formerly included in the original Lake Texoma State Park. Attending this kick-off meeting on behalf of Pointe Vista and Catfish Bay Marina was Ryan Chapman.

  • The Economic Contribution of Bass and Sea Angling in Ireland 2015
    The Economic Contribution of Bass and Sea Angling in Ireland 2015 1 The Economic Contribution of Bass and Sea Angling in Ireland Inland Fisheries Ireland (IFI) is the state agency responsible for the protection, management and conservation of the Republic of Ireland’s inland fisheries and recreational sea angling resources. The Republic of Ireland has over 70,000 kilometres of rivers and streams, 144,000 hectares of loughs and over 5,600 kilometres of coastline, all of which fall under the remit of IFI. In Ireland, bass stocks have been managed with a view to long-term sustainability of the natural resource since the 1980s when it was first recognised that bass could be an economically important recreational angling species and that, as a slow growing species, they could be vulnerable to stock depletion if ongoing commercial fishing practises were continued. On July 1st 1990, the Statutory Instrument 128/1990 - Bass (Conservation of Stocks) Order was created. The effect of this order was to prohibit commercial fishing for bass by Irish sea-fishing boats, to prohibit the use of nets and to set a minimum size limit of 40 cm for bass anglers. Another bye-law, Bass Fishing Conservation Bye-Law No. 791/2003, was introduced in 2003 and imposed a bag limit on anglers of two bass in any one period of 24 hours and also provided for a ban on angling for bass during the annual spawning season (15th May - 15 June). In sea angling terms, Ireland has traditionally had a wealth of resources; however, in more recent times there has been anecdotal evidence to suggest that fish stocks around our shores and also the sizes of these fish are in decline.
