Description

To evaluate enhancement efforts in Harding Lake, resident and stocked fish populations were sampled with: fyke traps in the littoral zone, sinking gill nets in the benthic zone, and vertical gill nets in the pelagic zone in August and September 1992. Catches of stocked species were: 117 Arctic char Salvelinus alpinus, eight kokanee Oncorhynchus nerka, zero Arctic grayling Thymallus arcticus, and zero rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss. Catches of resident species of fish were: 57 northern pike Esox lucius, 25 burbot Lota lota, 23 lake trout Salvelinus namaycush, and 303 least cisco Coregonus sardinella. In the three depth zones, 32 fish were captured in the littoral zone, 346 fish were captured in the benthic zone, and 155 fish were captured in the pelagic zone.
