Sampling of the fish communities in the Saugeen River watershed, 2005-2006 / by D. Marson, N.E. Mandrak, and D.A.R. Drake.Fs97-4/2911E-PDF

"A survey of the fish assemblages in the Saugeen River watershed was conducted by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) in 2005 and 2006. A total of 25 sites were sampled using boat electrofishing, backpack electrofishing and bag seining. A total of 1344 fishes were captured, representing 45 species, including two species at risk (Black Redhorse and Pugnose Shiner). During the sampling, boat electrofishing caught the highest number of species, relative to backpack electrofishing and bag seining. Of the 45 species captured, 35 species were caught by boat electrofishing (including 16 species exclusively caught electrofishing), 24 species were caught backpack electrofishing (including nine species exclusively caught by backpack electrofishing), and 15 species were caught bag seining (including two species exclusively caught seining). Boat electrofishing caught both Black Redhorse and Pugnose Shiner, while backpack electrofishing caught Pugnose Shiner"--Abstract, page vi.
