Survey of the 1961 fall domestic fishery at Snowdrift, N.W.T. / J.J. Keleher and C.G. Haight.: Fs52-2/738E-PDF
"From October 4 to November l6, a field survey was made of the 1961 fall domestic fishery at Snowdrift, a community of 158 Treaty Indians, situated in the East Arm of Great Slave Lake. The estimated total catch of 43,500 pounds was taken from five fishing sites. Nearly 29, 000 pounds of whitefish, as well as 6, 000 pounds of trout and 9,000 pounds of six other species made up the catch. The average amount per 100-yard net was 180 pounds. The total effort was equivalent to 193 nets. A minority of the community engaged in the fishery. It was concluded that any shortage of fish in the community was not attributable to its scarcity in the region"--p. 10-11.
