Description

Abundance and an index of abundance were estimated for a population of burbot Lota lota in Fielding Lake. Burbot were captured in baited hoop traps set in a systematic pattern across Fielding Lake during June of 1996. Estimated mean catch per unit of effort (CPUE) per 48-hour set of fully (450 millimeters total length and longer) and partially (300 to 449 millimeters total length) recruited burbot in Fielding Lake was 0.66 (SE = 0.09) and 0.40 (SE = 0.06), respectively. Abundance of fully recruited burbot estimated with multiple year mark-recapture experiments was 520 (SE = 100) in Fielding Lake in 1995. The estimated rate of survival of fully recruited burbot surviving was 71.2% (SE = 13.3) from 1994 to 1995.
