Results of Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s 2015 Asian carp early detection field surveillance program / by D. Marson, J. Colm, and B. Cudmore. : Fs97-4/3146E-PDF

"In 2015, DFO’s Asian Carp Program continued early detection field surveillance for Asian carps in the Canadian waters of the Great Lakes. Five crews sampled 1,056 sites from spring to fall at 36 locations in the Canadian waters of the Great Lakes and connecting channels. A total of 64,552 fishes were captured, representing 101 species. A total of 3,200 Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio) and 762 buffalo spp. (Ictiobus spp.) were captured in all gears except the trawl. One diploid Grass Carp was captured in a trammel net in Jordan Harbour, Lake Ontario, and intensive sampling yielded no additional Asian carps. In 2016, additional sites in eastern Lake Ontario, the Huron-Erie corridor, and connecting channels of lakes Erie and Ontario will be scouted, and an additional crew will be added to increase the capacity of DFO’s Asian Carp Program to detect these invasive species”--Abstract, p. vii.
