"In 1979 a creel census, experimental netting and biological sampling program was carried out on Kasba Lake, Northwest Territories. The purpose of the study was to examine the biological status and harvest of the fish stocks with particular reference to the lake trout, Salvelinus namaycush (Walbaum), sport fishery, and to obtain information necessary to assess the potential for the lake trout stock to provide a high quality fishery. Lake trout in Kasba Lake comprised 38% of the gillnet catch. Other species caught included lake whitefish, longnose and white sucker, northern pike, cisco, round whitefish and lake chub. Catch per unit of effort (CPE) for lake trout was 14.0 fish per 100 m of gillnet per 24 h. Three species angled for at Kasba Lake were lake trout, Arctic grayling and northern pike"--Abstract, page v.
