Help Assess Fish Health In Skootamatta Lake

Jul 07, 2015

Anders Holder presented to the members at the Annual General Meeting on Saturday.  Anders is a Masters student at the University of Toronto who is doing his Masters thesis on the health of the fishery in Skootamatta Lake.

There are 3 phases to his study:

  1. What does the public know about the fish species in the lake? Fill out his survey, take pictures of your catch, any info would be helpful to Anders.
  2. Seine netting – live release catch to examine what species are here in the lake.
  3. Look at the data and determine what changes have happened to species over time in the fishery and strategize how to preserve it for the future.

Anders has a Facebook page called Skootamatta Science with more information and encourages members to check it out, like the page, make comments, etc.
