Round Valley Reservoir The Bureau of Freshwater Fisheries is conducting a creel survey at Round Valley Reservoir this summer and there is an urgent need of additional volunteers.
Reliable volunteers are critical to a successful survey.
The reduction in size limit resulted from information collected during the initial survey two years ago and from data collected during the Bureau's fall gill netting of lake trout. The survey will also provide information on the number of anglers fishing the reservoir and catch rates of game species. The project involves interviewing anglers as they leave the reservoir. No strong knowledge of fish or fishing experience is necessary but a friendly face and disposition are helpful. The survey is carried out rain or shine.
