STATE OF CHINOOK SALMON IN LAKE HURON in 1999 BY: Jim Johnson, Michigan Department of Natural Resources Lloyd Mohr, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources Greg Wright, Chippewa Ottawa Fishery Resource Authority

CHINOOK STOCKING TRENDS LAKE HURON, ALL AGENCIES 2 CREEL CENSUS BEGINS 20% reduction in stocking

ESTIMATED CHINOOK HARVEST (KG), GEORGIAN BAY & MAIN BASIN L. HURON 1 MEANS, : 935,600 KG 2,062,625 LB 147,330 STONE 935,601 kg average Salmonine objective is 2.4 million kg

Chinook Salmon Catch Rates on Lake Michigan Compared to Lake Huron Charlevoix Fisheries Station CHSMIHU

TRENDS IN RECREATIONAL EFFORT, INDEX PORTS, MAIN BASIN LAKE HURON Hours 1 Mean = 1.65 million hours Mean = 1.12 million hours

Why the rise in Lake Huron chinook catch rates? The answer probably includes: Increase in pen culture Increase in vulnerability

OPEN-WATER RETURNS/100,000 STOCKED, YEAR CLASS: 1993 Released from pen vs. conventional Chi-square significant between pen & conventional 6 Total = Total = 154.7

OPEN-WATER RETURNS/100,000STOCKED YEAR CLASS: 1994 Pen reared & trucked to lake vs. conventional Chi-square significant between pen & conventional 6 Total = Total = 98.3

MANAGEMENT IMPLICATIONS

GAPS IN KNOWLEDGE Recruitment, especially from wild; Consumption and conversion efficiency rates; especially in winter; Site-specific post-stocking survival; Consequences of prey limitation: -on recruitment rates; -disease (BKD); -nutrition (EMS).

FUTURE DIRECTIONS Maintain 20% reduction in stocking; Continue site-specific marking & collections; Continue fall biological sampling; Start reproduction study (new): -mark all stocked chinooks; Encourage funding for archival depth & temperature tagging.

REPRODUCTION STUDY -LAKE HURON TECH. COMM.- Objective: Determine rates of recruitment, especially from wild Experimental design (Done in June ‘00) Mark all chinook stocked Head-hunt during summer Fall escapement surveys
