Background

Horse Lake supports a recreational fishery for Lake Trout (Salvelinus namaycush). To estimate their natural and fishing mortality, individuals were caught by angling and tagged with acoustic transmitters and/or external reward tags. Acoustically tagged fish were detected by a series of seven receivers distributed through the lake as well as annual or biannual mobile detection surveys. The mobile detection survey was conducted by deploying receivers for approximately 10 minutes at 90 locations arranged on a 400 m x 400 m grid. The external reward tags included a phone number for anglers to report their recaptures. In 2009 and 2021, a summer profundal index netting (SPIN) survey was done on the lake.

Horse Lake supports a recreational fishery for Lake Trout (Salvelinus namaycush). To estimate their natural and fishing mortality, individuals were caught by angling and tagged with acoustic transmitters and/or external reward tags. Acoustically tagged fish were detected by a series of seven receivers distributed through the lake as well as annual mobile receiver surveys. The external reward tags included a phone number for anglers to report their recaptures. In 2019, eight Rainbow Trout with acoustic transmitters and external reward tags were transplanted from Greenlee Lake.

Background

Horse Lake supports a recreational fishery for Lake Trout (Salvelinus namaycush). To estimate their natural and fishing mortality, individuals were caught by angling and tagged with acoustic transmitters and/or external reward tags. Seven receivers were maintained throughout the lake. Acoustically tagged fish were detected by a series of seven receivers distributed through the lake as well as annual mobile receiver surveys. The external reward tags included a phone number for anglers to report their recaptures.

Background

Horse Lake supports a recreational fishery for stocked Rainbow Trout and Kokanee and wild Lake Trout. To provide information on the natural and fishing mortality, Lake Trout were caught by angling and tagged with acoustic transmitters and/or reward tags.
