Scugog creel census in 1977 shows pickerel most popular In the summer of 1977, the Kawartha Lakes Fisheries Assessment Unit conducted a creel census program on Lake Scugog and Sturgeon Lake. This type of program involves contacting anglers to determine the length of time they have been fishing, the number and type of fish caught, place of residence, andso on. Certain biological information is also collected, such as the length, weight and age of fish caught. From the opening of yellow pickerel (walleye) season on May 14 to October 27, a two-man census crew _contacted 2,694 anglers on the two lakes. Of course, approximately sixteen per- cent were non-residents of Ontario. =~ The majority of anglers contacted (69 percent) sought yellow pickerel speci- fically. An additional 19 percent were fishing for 'anything', 10 percent for maskinonge, 2 percent for bass, and less than 1 percent for panfish. On the average, it required 5.1 hours of fishing on Sturgeon Lake and 7.7 hours on Lake Scugog to catch a yellow pickerel. These figures represent fishing success averaged over the entire season. The average sizes of game fish caught and retained by contacted anglers, and measured by the census crew were as follows. Yellow Pickerel in Stur-~ geon Lake, 35.8 cm (14.1 inches) and Lake Scugog 39.5 cm (15.6 inches). Mask- inonge in Sturgeon Lake 71'2 cm (28.0 inches) and Lake Scugog 84.1 cm (33.1 inches). Largemouth bass in Stur- geon Lake 46.5 cm (18.3 inches) and 37.0 cm (14.6 inches) in Lake Scugog. Smallmouth Bass - 28.5 cm (11.2 inches) in Sturgeon Lake and 35.7 em (14.1 Police report Continued from page 1 section of Highway 7A and Queen Street where the assault is alleged to have taken place. Gary Latour of Goodwood was treated for cuts and scrapes to the face and kept overnight at Port Perry Hos- pital for observation. OUTBOARD STOLEN A 9 h.p. Johnson outboard was stolen from a home on Scugog Island while the owner was away on holidays. Police say the motor was chained and locked to the back of a small boat moored on the lakeshore. The motor was valued at $750.00. inches) in Lake Scugog. The results of this pro- gram will be compared to results from previous year's work, as well as from similar programs on other lakes in the Lindsay District and across the province. These comparisons will enable our staff to monitor changes in fishing pressure "and patterns of resource use, and to recommend management procedures to ensure the best use of this valuable resource.

John Greiner who operates Town Line Lunch at the intersection of Highway 7A and Queen Street in Port" Perry stated in a letter to the council that he wants a pro- tective zone of at least half a " mile around his restaurant in light of the fact that the council has already restrict- ed the mobile canteen truck from operating in the down- town area of Port Perry. Mr. Greiner suggests that the canteen truck may cut into his business, and if restricted zones are applic- able in one area of the municipality they should be applied in others. In reviewing the objections in the letter Monday night council indicated some sympathy for Mr. Greiner's problem but refused to go along with the restricted zone around the restaurant. Councillor Richard Drew suggested that council inform Mr. Greiner that the mobile canteen licence is renewable every year and if there are any problems with the truck parking for long periods of time in one area, 'the licence could be revoked. Aside from that, said coun- cillor Drew, "we can't put restricted zones around everybody in the Township who sells coffee." Council granted the licence to Campus Vending of Uxbridge at the regular meeting three weeks ago when owner Neil Pascoe told to mobile canteen truck members that he would be moving his offices to Scugog Township if he could secure permission to operate the truck in the Township. Nursery school OK Scugog Township council has given approval to Durham YMCA to use Town Hall 1873 as a nursery school, a move which may get around the need for a zoning change. Durham Region YMCA official Linda Skerratt told council Monday night that the Y plans to operate a nursery school two mornings a week at Town Hall 1873 starting the middle of next month, and getting a provin- cial licence depends on the proper zoning. She stated however, that when a similar situation came up in Oshawa the provincial Ministry of Social Services. which issues the licences, accepted an en- dorsement from the munici- pality rather than having to go through a zoning changeg and council agreed Monday night to write a letter to the government stating it has no objections to the nursery school. The nursery school has the - approval of the Town Hall committee and will accom- modate up to 25 children from two years to school age. 2 J ~ MORTGAGE LOANS 1st Mortgage from 10% % + 2nd Mortgages from 112% .
