Evaluation of Smallmouth Bass Introductions in South Dakota Lakes
… modified-fyke (trap) nets were used to sample smallmouth bass Micropterus dolomieui during the spring from five lakes of varying environmental characteristics in eastern South Dakota. The\ mean length of smallmouth bass caught by electrofishing was significantly smaller (P=0.0001) than those …

Smallmouth Bass Seasonal Dynamics in Northeastern South Dakota Glacial Lakes
Smallmouth bass Micropterus dolomieu are top predators and among the most popular sportfish in the United States. Smallmouth bass were introduced into many South Dakota lakes in the late 1980’s and the introductions have resulted in many self-sustaining populations. As smallmouth bass become more …

Smallmouth bass mortality during parental care: implications for year-class strength
… hypotheses that daily mortality rates (DMR) of smallmouth bass offspring were influenced by life stage, density and growth, parental male attributes, fungus infection (egg stage), and predation during parental care in the North Anna River, Virginia. In 1994, stream discharge was relatively low …

Feeding ecology of age-o smallmouth bass in the New River, West Virginia
… study was to determine the food habits of age-O smallmouth bass (Micropterus dolomieu Lac~p~de) in the New River and to examine spatial, temporal, and size-related differences in foraging success. Understanding factors that regulate foraging success of age-O smallmouth bass may provide further …

Interactions between Walleye Sander vitreus and Smallmouth Bass Micropterus dolomieu in Missouri River reservoirs
… As a result, supplemental stocking is common. Smallmouth Bass Micropterus dolomieu have been introduced to many waterbodies outside of its native range to increase angling opportunities. However, expansion of Smallmouth Bass has overlapped with declining Walleye populations, prompting concerns …

Modelling to compare harvest regulations in recreational fisheries: case study of smallmouth bass fisheries
… to 81. As a case study, data were used from the smallmouth bass fishery in a pool of the New River in West Virginia. Principal components analysis revealed that 91% of the total variation in the output variables among the 81 simulations was represented by the first three components. A set of …

Managing Muskellunge in the New River, Virginia: Effective Regulations and Predation on Smallmouth Bass
… between the Muskellunge Esox masquinongy and Smallmouth Bass Micropterus dolomieu fisheries of the New River, Virginia. Following the institution of a 42-in minimum-length limit (MLL) on Muskellunge, bass anglers feared that increased Muskellunge abundance might be negatively affecting …

Acoustic Telemetry Provides New Insights into the Ecology of Smallmouth Bass in Eastern Lake Ontario
Smallmouth Bass (Micropterus dolomieu) are a top predator native to the Laurentian Great Lakes, with a wide distribution in North America. Our understanding of Smallmouth Bass ecology is extensive, although primarily based on research from smaller inland lakes, rivers, and reservoirs. In Lake …

Time and duration of spawning by smallmouth bass (Micropterus dolomieui) in the New River drainage
… of physical parameters on spawning times of smallmouth bass and subsequent growth of young-of-the year was studied via the otolith aqeinq technique. Daily rings on the saqittae of young-of-the-year smallmouth bass were first formed the day of swim-up, and continued to be formed until growth …

Habitat suitability and population characteristics of smallmouth bass and rock bass in the Powell River, Virginia
A survey of the population characteristics of smallmouth bass (Micropterus dolomieu), rock bass (Ambloplites rupestris), and habitat conditions were conducted in the Powell River, Virginia, to identify potential habitat limitations for these species. The study area consisted of three reaches, which …

Impact of localized harvest on the population of smallmouth bass (Micropterus dolomieu) of Lake Moomaw, Virginia
… Virginia contains a migratory population of smallmouth bass that congregate in the headwaters of the reservoir during the spring spawning period, where they are vulnerable to a shore-based, harvest-oriented fishery. The extent of this fishery and resulting effects on the small mouth bass …
