Bass? Alberta?
Why won't they stock a lake in alberta full of small mouth bass?
There fun as hell to catch. I say throw some into Badger lake and Mcgregor.... What do you guys think? Also is there any bass in alberta? |
I found this and I will Quote
"Smallmouth bass were introduced into Alberta in the early to mid 20th century by individuals or managers acting on their own initiative; these fish did not survive (Scott and Crossman 1973; Nelson and Paetz 1992). Some reproduction of a small population introduced between 1977 and 1984 into Island Lake, north of the town of Smoky Lake in south-eastern Alberta, has been observed. Remnants of this population may still exist (Nelson and Paetz 1992)." Here is the URL for this, http://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/Library/337846.pdf Also Quote "Fish stocking and fish transfers have a colourful history in Alberta. Fisheries managers introduced large and smallmouth bass into Sylvan, Gull and Cooking lakes in 1908 and into Lac La Nonne in 1924." Here is the URL for this, http://www.whyte.org/time/riveroflife/fishmgmt.pdf Reading all of this and I was thinking. Do you think there are some bass still alive in Island lake? |

+ 1 For Bass lakes in Alberta.I fished them in BC,ontario and Quebec,and they are one of the most fun fish to catch,and they taste just like walleye&perch.
Burbot Man,....I like your profile picture! |
Nothing wrong with a road trip to BC or other destinations for bass. Alberta doesnt need every species that swims.:)

Smallmouth Bass could of easily been introduced into Crawlingvalley instead of trout when it was first filled both are non native fish.
|
I hear catching bass on flies is pretty awesome.
|
Power plant cooling ponds would be good, see the Sheerness thread.
|
Since there is so much talk about getting bass back into Alberta, I was wondering if any of you have submitted a resolution through your local F&G club to SRD to get them back in Alberta?
