INTRODUCTION Illinois Power Company (IPC) conducted a creel survey on Clinton Lake from 1978 through 1986 to assess fishing activities. This report summarizes creel data from 1982 through 1986. Angler interview data were statistically expanded to provide estimates of fishing activities, such as number and species of fishes harvested and released, time spent fishing, etc.

The sport fish community of Clinton Lake included several species common to central Illinois lakes: largemouth bass, bluegill, white crappie, black bullhead, and channel catfish. Several experimental sport fishes were stocked to assess their adaptability to a cooling lake and to diversify the fishery. These fishes were walleye, hybrid striped bass (striped bass x white bass), and tiger muskellunge (muskellunge x northern pike) (Smithson and Kurzawski 1982).

Description of Clinton Lake Clinton Lake (Figure 1) was constructed in central Illinois by IPC to provide cooling water for Clinton Power Station. The lake was formed by a dam downstream from the confluence of Salt Creek and North Fork. Normal pool was attained in May 1978. This resulted in a 1,981 hectare (4,895 acre) roughly V-shaped impoundment (Table 1). Average depth is 4.75 m I

(15.6 f t) and most of the 209 km (130 mi) of shoreliste is wooded. Most of l the timber was removed before filling, except in areas that became large l

Coves.

METHODS AND MATE 21ALS Stratified and non-uniform techniques were incorporated into a i

multiple access area creel survey to yield unbiased estimates of angling l effort and harvest (Malvestuto et al.1978; Malvestuto 1983). Creel 1

t effort was adjusted to account for temporal and spatial changes in fishing activities. The creel survey methods were statistically based to provide reliable estimates of expanded data (Carlander et al.1958) so the information could be used to assess fish management techniques. Precision of the estimates were statistically analyzed for accuracy.

Sampling Schedule Creel effort was equally divided between weekdays and weekends

.(included holidays) (Table 2) to reflect angling effort for Clinton Lake (Kurzawski 1984) and to provide reliabin estimates of harvest (Malvestuto 1983). Weekday samples were uniformly distributed among eligible days and weekend samples were randomly distributed.

One eight hour shift, randomly chosen, was sampled on each sampling day. Each eight hour shift was divided into two or three consecutive nonoverlapping sampling units, depending on the average number of daylight

hours. For example, when daylight averaged near 10 to 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, two sampling units each four hours long were established; when daylight averaged near 14 to 16 hours1.851852e-4 days <br />0.00444 hours <br />2.645503e-5 weeks <br />6.088e-6 months <br />, three sampling units each four hours long were established. When three sampling units were established, two consecutive units were randomly chosen, thus an early and late shif t resulted.

The number of sampling days per month was determined from anticipated angler effort. Several winter months were not sampled (Table

2) because sporadic fishing pressure provided statistically unreliable results (Kurzewski 1984).

,Sangling Sections The lake was divided into four or five sections to obtain representative samples of fishing ef fort and harvest (Figure 1). Five 4

sections were originally chosen but due to lack of use at Section 5, it h

L was merged with. Section 4. One section was sampled per scheduled day. The number of sampling days assigned to each section was determined from relative fishing effort probabilities calculated from previous creel surveys (adjusted for the deletion of a sampling section)' (Kurzawski 1984).

Sampling probabilities were: Section 1, 0.08; Section 2, 0.33; Section 3, 0.34; and Section 4,.0.25. Lake sections were uniformly assigned to sampling days.

Data Collection Sampling consisted of boat and bank angler interviews and counts.

Boat anglers were interviewed at boat ramps, i.e., completed fishing trips; bank anglers were interviewed while fishing, i.e., incomplete fishing trips. Data collected during angler interviews included number of anglers, time spent fishing, and the number of each fish species released and ha rve sted, Catch and release data included the number of fish larger and smaller than the legal size limits when applicable. Total lengths were recorded from a representative sample of harvested fishes.

An " instantaneous" count of englers was made by boat in *he section twice each day. The counting period was chosen by dividing each sampling unit into three equal, non-overlapping time intervals. One interval was randomly selected from each unit with selections adjusted to avoid angler counts on consecutive intervals. Angler counts were generally made within

one hour, i.e., instantaneous as suggested by Neuhold and Lu (1957).

During severe weather, methods were modified and angling activity was assessed by counting boat trailers parked at the access areas. During January through March and November 1984, angler counts were taken lakewide by truck or snowmobile because angling effort was low, boat ramps were 6

closed, or ice covered the. lake.

Data Expansion and P p ision Expansion of angler. interview and count data followed formulas from Malvestuto et al. (1978) and was similar to a previous survey (Kurzawski 1984). Effort, harvest, and release data were calculated for each month surveyed and summed for annual totals.

Precision of monthly effort and harvest estimates were evaluated by using 95% confidence intervals (CI) and coefficient of variations (CV).

The variance associated with each estimate was used to calculate CI and CV (Malvestuto et al. 1978). Confidence intervals were calculated using a t-statistic. The CV was used to provide a measure of precision associated with an estimate,'i.e., as CV or CI decreases, precision increases.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Angler Effort Effort of bank and boat anglers was combined without an effect on precision of effort estimates because of randomized creel sampling. The precision (CV) of monthly effort estimates was best from April through October (Table 3). Malvestuto et al. (1978) also found effort estimates to be most precise from April through October. A CV of less than 20%

indicated effort estimates were reliable.

Monthly effort estimates were summed to provide annual effort estimates. Annual angling effort (hours /hactare) on Clinton Lake was consistent during 1982 through 1984; effort increased considerably from 1984 through 1986 (Figure 2). Increased effort by boat anglers on weekends accounted for the majority of this increase (Table 4). Increased effort in i

.1985 and 1986 reflects more success at harvesting fish, primarily white {

j. crappie. Bank effort was low because of limited access to shoreline areas.  !

The five-year mean effort for Clinton Lake (172 hours0.00199 days <br />0.0478 hours <br />2.843915e-4 weeks <br />6.5446e-5 months <br /> / hectare) was considerably greater than the mean annual pressure from a nationwide sample of 103 reservoirs (76 hours8.796296e-4 days <br />0.0211 hours <br />1.256614e-4 weeks <br />2.8918e-5 months <br /> / hectare) (Jenkins and Morais 1971) and for many other reservoirs (Table 5).

Angling ef fort was generally greatest during May and June with a decreasing trend for other months (Figure 3; Table 6). Similar trends in angling effort have been consistently reported (Malvestuto et al.1978, 1979; McNurney and Dreier 1981; Degan et al.1982; Baker 1983). Creater angling effort during May and June coincides with increased catch of crappie and the beginning of the summer vacation season.

Weekends (including major holidays) comprised 55% of the mean annual estimated effort, thus the assumption that effort would be divided equally between weekends and weekdays was valid.

Trip Length Mean trip length for Clinton Lake anglers was consistent (range of 4.4 to 4.9 hours1.041667e-4 days <br />0.0025 hours <br />1.488095e-5 weeks <br />3.4245e-6 months <br />) and generally exceeded the trip length for several other Illinois reservoirs (Table 7). Angler trip length tended to increase from 1932 through 1986, probably due in part to the increase catch of white crappie.

Angler Harvest The Clinton Lake access area creel survey resulted in a substantial bias towards boat anglers, therefore harvest estimates were tabulated separately. This sampling bias was not unwarranted because boat anglers expend considerable effort fishing on Clinton Lake. Bank anglers are also restricted from fishing many areas of Clinton Lake due to lack of convenient access. For these reasons only boat harvest estimates will be discussed, however bank harvest data are presented in the Appendix.

Precision of boat harvest estimates was generally best (i.e., CV less than 30%) from April through October for all years (Table 8). In several instances, CV exceeded 30%, and the 95% CI's were large. These less precise harvest estimates occurred in April (1982 and 1983) and August (1984 and 1985) when catch of white crappie was low and generally sporadic.

Total estimated harvest by boat anglers increased each year (Table 9) due to the increased harvest of white crappie. Harvest in 1986 during any month creeled (except August) was greater than the total harvest for 1982.

Harvest in May 1986 was also greater than the annual estimated harvest for 1983 or 1984. April, May, and June were typically the months that anglers harvested the most fish (Figure 4). Harvest generally declined during the summer months and increased somewhat in the fall.

Annual catch-per-unit-of-ef fort (CPE) increased steadily from 1982 through 1985 and leveled off in 1986 for boat anglers. Clinton Lake CPE for fish harvested generally exceeded values for a national sample (0.85, Jenkins and Morais 1971) and for several other reservoirs in Illinois (Table 10).

Harvest per hectare can also be used to compare the fisheries of dif ferent lakes. Rarvest from Clinton Lake was low in 1982 when compared to other lakes (Table 10); however, from 1983 through 1986 harvest was generally greater than other Illinois reservoirs. In 1985, the Clinton Lake harvest far exceeded other lake's harvest primarily due to harvest of white crappie.

White crappie White crappie were the primary fish harvested by boat anglers (94% of the total) (Table 9). Annual harvest increased in each successive year 16

particularly with increases in 1983, 1985, and 1986. This increase in harvest occurred for two reasons: angler effort increased (Figure 2), and crappie from several strong year classes were attaining sizes that would be acceptable to anglers (Pallo 1987; Lutterbie, 1988). In 1983 and 1985 crappie from the 1979 and 1980 year classes likely made up a considerable N

portion of the harvest. In 1986, crappie from the 1984 year class were large enough to contribute substantially to the fishery.

Angler effort declined slightly from 1982 through 1983, yet CPE (number / hour) increased (Table 11). In 1985, effort increased but harvest 2

increased even more, resulting in a much greater CPE. However, in 1986 CPE declined slightly because harvest did not increase in proportion to effort.

Good year classes of white crappie were produced in 1984, 1985, 1986, and 1987 (Pallo 1987; Lutterbie 1988) and these year classes should sustain the fishery for several years.

Annual boat angler harvest of crapple increased from 12/ hectare in 1982 to 250/ hectare in 1986 (Table 12). Harvest of white crappie at other Illinois reservoirs was much less, except for Newton Lake in 1987 (230/ hectare; Table 12).

Most white crappie were harvested in April and May (57% in total; Table 13). During any given year, most crappie were usually harvested in May; exceptions were in October 1982 and June 1983.

Mean total length of harvested crappie tended to increase from 1982 through 1986 and leveled off at 8.9" (227 mm) (Table 11). The percent of

~

crappie greater than 9" in length generally increased from a low of 27% in 1982 to 61% in 1986. There mean TL's were in the preferred length category (Gablehouse 1984). Anglers kept 20% of the crappie caught in 1982; in ,

1985 and 1986 anglers kept 50% of the crappie caught. Total biomans of 21

harvested crappie also increased annually from 2.0 pounds / acre in 1982 to l' 37.2 pounds / acre in 1986. The 1985 and 1986 harvests were considerahiy greater than other Illinois lakes (Table 12).

L Bluegill Bluegill were the second most harvested fish (2% of total) by boat anglers, (Table 9). Harvest generally declined from 1982 through 1984, then increased considerably in 1985 and 1986 (Table 14). Mean total length of bluegill was small, i.e. less than the preferred size category of Cablehouse (1984). Annual boat angler harvest for Clinton Lake was well within the range of harvest rates (number per hour and number per hectare) for other Illinois lakes (Table 15).

Black bullhead Blach L 11 head was the third most harvested fish (1% of total) by boat anglers (Table 9). Harvest (i.e., total numbers, CPE, and number per hectare) was similar during 1982 and 1983, declined in 1984, then greatly increased through 1986 (Table 16). Bullhead harvest in Clinton Lake was greater than in Rend Lake and Lake Springfield but less than in several other large Illinois lakes (Table 17). Black bullhead may be considered an incidental harvest species particularly in large lakes as few anglers sought them in Lake Springfield and Rend Lake (Heidinger 1984). I Black crappie Black crappie was the fourth most harvested fish (1% of total) by boat ,

-l anglers (Table 9). Harvest was low in 1982 through 1984, then increased in i 1985 and 1986 (Table 18). Black crappie harvested in Clinton Lake was greater than in Lake Springfield but less than in several large Illinois lakes (Table 19).

Largemouth bass Largemouth bass were the fifth most harvested fish by boat anglers j

(Table 9). Harvest generally declined from 1982 through 1986. Anglers were most successful at catching bass during several summer months, however l August proved to be the best month overall (Table 20). Annual CPE of bass harvested by boat anglers generally declined except for 1985. Harvest per hectare was best in 1982 (Table 20). Harvest per hectare and CPE vere much However, less than other Illinois lakes or a natioral mean (Table 21).

harvest rates were probably lowered due to catch and release fishing.

Clinton Lake anglers released 46 to 85% of the legal size (potentially harvestable) bass. In other studies voluntary release of more than 10% of the legal size fish can change the interpretation of harvest data (Clark 1983).

Experimental Sport Fish Harvest of experimental sport fishes, i.e. walleye, hybrid striped bass, and tiger muskellunge was low (Table 9). Populations of these fishes are maintained by stocking as significant reproduction is not expected.

The low occurrence of these fish in the creel lowered the precision of harvest estimates, therefore only a qualitative discussion will follow.

Among these experimental fish, walleye were harvested most often.

Harvest of walleye declined from 1982 through 1985 then increased in 1986 (Table 9). Walleye were more available for harvest in 1982 because of the extremely good year class from the original stocking of the lake in 1978.

Less harvest from 1983 through 1985 reflects weaker year classes and harvest from previous years. Increased harvest in 1986 reflects stronger year classes for 1983 and 1984.

Harvest of hybrid striped bass was low but increased in 1986 (Table 32

9). -This harvest increase was attributed to a good 1983 year class which became legal size in.1986.

Tiger muskellunge were stocked to provide a trophy fish for anglers, f'

therefore ' harvest was expected to be low (Table 9). One line class world record was established in 1985 from Clinton Lake (National Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame 1985).

Other Species Harvest of other species was low (Table 9). Harvest was rather constant for common carp, green sunfish, and freshwater drum. Harvest tended to increase for channel catfish. Harvest of other species was incidental.

SUMMARY

AND CONCLUSIONS Data (angler effort and fish harvest) derived from the Clinton Lake creel survey were statistically reliable particularly during April through October.

Fishing pressure on Clinton Lake was twice the national average and exceeded most other large reservoirs in Illinois. Fishing pressure for Clinton Lake was relatively low from 1982 through 1984, then increased substantially through 1986 due to the increased harvest of white crappie.

. Ihe. effort was about equally distributed between weekdays and weekends and was greatest during May and June. Similar distributions of effort are commonly reported for other lakes.

Total estimated harvest by boat anglers increased each year, with substantial increases in 1985 and 1986. The CPE from 1984 through 1986 equalled or exceeded the national average and was greater than most other large Illinois reservoirs. The five-year mean CPE and number of fish harvested per hectare from Clinton Lake also exceeded data from other large 35

l l l t

Illinois reservoirs. Mean trip length on Clinton Lake was similar to other l large Illinois reservoirs.

1 White crappie (94%), bluegill (2%), black crappie (1%), and black bullhead (1%) were the primary fishes (i.e., greater than 1%) harvested by boat anglers. Walleye, hybrid striped bass, and tiger muskellunge, i.e., i the experimental species, were not harvested extensively; however, if strong year classes are maintained harvest should increase.

White crappie comprised the majority of the harvested fish. White  !

crappie CPE increased from 1982 through 1985, then slightly declined in 1986. Harvest in terms of size (mean total length) increased from 1982 through 1986 and so did the number of pounds per hectare. Mean harvest by I

weight was more than most other Illinois reservoirs. Most crappie were harvested in April and May. Substantial numbers of fish smaller than anglers preferred were released.

Bluegill were the second most harvested fish. Harvest declined from 1982 through 1984, then increased in 1985 and 1986 when fish size was more acceptable to anglers. Bluegill harvest was within the ranges of other Illinois reservoirs.

Harvest of black bullhead and black crappie was low, however, harvest was similar to other large Illinois lakes.

Harvest of largemouth baas could have been much greater as considerable percentages (46 to 85%) of legal sited bass were released.

The CPE snd harvest per hectare was much less than for other Illinois lakes or a national mean. Overall, August was the best month to catch largemouth bass at Clinton Lake.

36

Walleye and hybrid striped bass were the most harvested of the experimental species. The best harvest of these fish occurred in 1986 and harvest may increase with continued good stockings.
