Activity Periods of Some Fishes in Heming Lake, Canada

Abstract

On the basis of the numbers of fish caught per unit of time in Heming Lake during a spring–summer period, the white sucker (Catostomus commersoni) was most active during daylight. The following species were most active during darkness: northern pike (Esox lucius), whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis), and walleye (Stizostedion vitreum vitreum).
