3. Taxonomy and Habits of the Sisco-wet of Lake Superior. 



The objective of the project is to determine the taxonomic relationship of the siscowet 

 to the lake trout and to study its feeding habits and distribution. Two summers 

 have been devoted to netting and collecting specimens. Stomach analyses have 

 been made. Studies have been made on the structures and nneasur ements of both 

 siscowets and lake trout to determine the taxonomic relationship.

4. The Social Behavior of the Northern Largemouth Bass Under Laboratory Conditions. 



The object of this project is to determine what type of territories may be claimed 

 and their relationship to the social hierarchies established under laboratory con- 

 ditions. The work includes experiments with water at various temperatures and 

 various volumes of water per fish. Experiments have been done or are planned 

 using several fresh water species, although most extensive work has been with 

 the largemouth bass.

1. Land Acquisition for a Public Access Area on Moon Lake (FA: F-l-L). 



Moon Lake is one of the better sport fishing areas of the Delta. Private ownership 

 of all land surrounding the lake has restricted free public access for boat 

 launching, shore fishing and other recreational use. A six-acre tract was 

 acquired and is being developed as a public access area. Development will 

 include grading and leveling the area, construction of sanitary, boat launching 

 and parking facilities, and the digging of a water well.
