Bolstering Piscivore Abundance to Restructure Small Impoundment Fish Communities

Abstract: Small impoundments (hereafter, "lakes") provide close-to-home fishing opportunities for many anglers but do not always provide quality fishing, especially for panfish. Often, these lakes contain populations of slow-growing Bluegill Lepomis macrochirus and crappies Pomoxis spp. The presence of abundant Gizzard Shad Dorosoma cepedianum and Common Carp Cyprinus carpio is known to negatively influence these populations. Chemical and mechanical removal of these nuisance species requires intensive effort, is costly,… Show more

“…There were three pre-treatment years and four post-treatment years in the study. Few treatment effects on bluegill were evident (Michaletz 2020). Mean TL for ages 3 and 4 bluegill in one treatment lake and age 4 bluegill in another treatment lake were larger in the after period, whereas, mean TL of these fish did not change in the reference lakes.…”

“…For gizzard shad, only the spring collection with the highest CPUE was used because CPUE was strongly related to water temperatures. Water temperatures were frequently too cold during the first spring sample for gizzard shad to be vulnerable to shoreline electrofishing (Michaletz 2020). For the other species, CPUE was averaged over the two spring samples for each year.…”
