1 Fisheries Survey of Saratoga Lake 7- Mark D. Cornwell Kevin Poole State University of New York College of Agriculture & Technology Department of Fisheries & Wildlife Cobleskill, NY

2 ABSTRACT: This survey was conducted at the request of the Saratoga Lake Protection and Improvement District to provide fisheries data associated with a herbicide treatment to control exotic Eurasian water milfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum). Night time boat electrofishing was conducted on the North East shoreline on 7 September and October 7 and the entire shoreline in May, June and October. Comparisons between 7 pre-treatment data and post-treatment data for the North East shore show no clear trends in catch per unit effort or shifts in species composition between these two years. Catch per unit effort (CPUE) data indicate that largemouth bass were most abundant in West shore (pre-treatment,./hr), North East shore (post-treatment, 7./hr), North East shore (pre-treatment.7/hr) and South shore (one year post treatment, 7./hr) samples respectively. General trends in CPUE indicate that fish abundance is lowest in the South and highest in North East shoreline sections. INTRODUCTION This study was conducted by the SUNY Cobleskill Department of Fisheries & Wildlife at the request of the Saratoga Lake Protection and Improvement District (SLPID), Ballston Spa, NY, to collect fisheries data associated with an application of herbicides aimed at controlling exotic Eurasian water milfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum) (EWM) in Saratoga Lake. Points of contact for SLPID were Dean Long (The LA Group) () 7-, dlong@thelagroup.com, and Joe Finn, Saratoga Lake Protection and Improvement District, () 7-79, jfinn@nycap.rr.com. Rob Fiorentino (rjfioren@gw.dec.state.ny.us) from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Department, Warrensburg was the principle biologist providing NYSDEC input and design for this survey. Saratoga Lake, located in southeastern Saratoga County, is,7 acres and has a mean depth of feet and maximum depth of 9 feet. The lake is considered eutrophic with an anoxic hypolimnion after summer stratification. The fishery is primarily a cool/warm water fishery dominated by largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, walleye, bluegill, yellow perch, pumpkinseed, chain pickerel, northern pike, bullhead, rock bass, and black crappie. Saratoga Lake has a history of exotic species introductions including Eurasian water milfoil and water chestnut (Trapa natans). The goal of this survey was to establish baseline line fishery data in concert with a SONAR and RENOVATE herbicide treatment directed at control of EWM, applied in spring 7 and as part of the Saratoga Lake Invasive Species Long-term Management Plan (ISLMP). Fisheries surveys have been conducted (and are planned) for each herbicide application location for both pre- and post treatment areas during 7, and 9. MATERIAL & METHODS This is the second year of this fisheries survey. Survey dates were 7 September and October 7 (Fall 7 pre-treatment survey of North East Shoreline), June (-yr post treatment of Southern shoreline) and June and July (Summer pre-treatment survey of West shore). All surveys were done at night with a Smith-Root boat electrofisher. Each survey date started after dark and ended between midnight and am. Each survey track was contiguous, fishing in shallow (< ), near shore water in consecutive, connecting electrofishing runs. Electrofishing effort (time in seconds) for each run was automatically recorded by the boat electrofisher. A geographic positioning system (GPS) unit was used to record latitude and longitude (UTM) coordinates for the start and endpoint of each electrofishing run. Survey endpoints and effort are recorded in Tables -. Survey sites and the survey track are illustrated in Figures -. A -watt generator coupled to a Type VI-A variable voltage pulsator provided power for the electrofisher. During all fish collections, - DC volts at -7. amps were used on all nights. Two netters located on each side of the bow captured fish in the field. Fish were netted in the DC field, then placed into a 7-gallon live well and processed at the end of the collection run. After processing, all fish were released in good condition at the end of each run.

3 Electrofishing surveys were made when littoral water temperatures were - C, as prescribed in the Percid Sampling Manual (Forney et al., 99), with alternating game fish only (target min) and all fish (usually - min) collections. During six all fish collections every effort was made to collect EVERY fish in the DC field, including game fish, non-gamefish and young of the year. During gamefish only collections, just gamefish and fish that appeared to be gamefish were targeted by the netters. Collected fish were identified and measured in maximum total length (millimeters) on a measuring board. Results of game fish and non-game fish are expressed in catch/hr in Table. These standard survey methods and electrofishing boat design are routinely used by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) and were approved for this survey by a Region NYSDEC biologist (Matt Presser) who accompanied us onboard the research vessel on 7 September 7.

Most gamefish and panfish catch rates remained remarkably consistent between 7 (NE shore pre-treatment) and (NE shore post treatment). Largemouth bass catch rates actually went up in (77./hr) compared to 7 (.7/hr) (Table ). The southern shore (sampled one year post treatment) had the lowest catch of any area of the lake for both game fish and all fish (Table ). This may be cause for concern, although this low catch rate could be due to a shallow, muddy habitat with little diversity and cannot be attributed to the herbicide treatment because no pretreatment fishery data exists for this section. Overall, Saratoga Lake is a highly productive fishery with great diversity of game and non-game fishes. All fish observed were in good condition and recovered from the stress of electrofishing well. Bluegill are very abundant in Saratoga Lake. Large and smallmouth bass are healthy and abundant. Modest numbers of walleye, northern pike and black crappie are present in Saratoga Lake but more electrofishing and/or gill netting is needed to better understand these fisheries.
