Declines in nutrient concentrations have reduced the amount of phytoplank- ton (algae) in the lake which, in turn, reduces the amount of food available for microscopic zooplank- ton. Have your Children's BIRTHDAY PARTY Ela Nes ke) 1s1@) NV MINCE MANN ats) call 853-0470 Smaller fish, such as alewife and smelt, are dependent on zooplank- ton for forage. Reduced concentra- tions of zooplankton stress alewife and smelt populations resulting in poor growth and poor survival of adults. Stressed populations of alewife and smelt eventually are unable to ipport large populations of preda- tory fish, notably salmon and trout. Indeed, high populations of preda- tory fish inflict further damage on populations of alewife and smelt. almon and trout begin to eat them- selves out of house and home. The bottom line of the report “suggests that the present demand for food by predators, including stocked salmon and trout species, likely exceeds the supply that can be sustained by prey species in Lake Ontario.” In other words, there are too many predators and not enough food to feed them. In a similar situation in the mid- 1980s, the hugely successful chi- nook salmon fishery collapsed in Lake Michigan. In Lake Ontario, the first signs of predator stress are evident as small numbers of dead and dying salmon have been col- lected in this year’s bottom trawl surveys. Declines in the size of fish returning to spawn and reduced angler catch rates are also evidence 90 DAY GUARANTEE » FREE ESTIMATES ELECTRONIC SERVICE AT A PRICE THAT WON'T JOLT YOU! + VCRs + HOME & CAR STEREOS * PORTABLES « CDs * TURNTABLES VIDEO GAMES * COMPUTERS ETC.

Painful decisions must be made to accommodate changes in the Lake Ontario ecosystem. A return to the polluted waterways which formerly discharged into Lake Ontario would restore the nutrient balance but would be undesirable in many other ways. Stocking of prey species to feed salmon and trout predators would accomplish nothing as there would be no food for stocked prey to feed n. It would appear that the number of salmon and trout currently stocked in Lake Ontario must be reduced immediately. By reducing predation, prey species should be able to strike an equitable balance with new ecosystem conditions. Through lake modeling and moni- toring, a modified stocking pro- gram can then be put in place which will provide for a healthy, sustainable sport fishery in Lake Ontario A biologist by profession, David Featherstone devotes a large portion of his spare time to volunteer groups which: are working to protect and enhance the environment.
