Job No. B-19 Title: Inventory of the Species Present in Lake Halbert and Lake Corsicana. Period Covered: November 1, 1957 through September 30, 19538 ABSTRACT : Lakes Halbert and Corsicana are located on the watershed of Chambers Creek and serve as water supplies for Corsicana, Texas. Lake Halbert is contained by a dam on Elm Creek while Lake Corsicana has an earthen embankment along three sides and ob- tains water by pumping from Chambers Creek. Black and yellow bullhead, together with redear sunfish and warmouth, were presen only in Lake Halbert while spotted gar, longnose gar, blackstripe topminnow and spothed bass were present in Lake Corsicana but not in Lake Halbert. This was probably due to the pumping of water from Chambers Creek into Lake Corsicana. Game fish species made up 64.78 percent of the Lake Halbert population and 595.23 percent of the Lake Corsicana total. Rough fish accounted for 68.26 percent of the weight of Lake Halbert net collections but comprised 80.55 percent of the Lake Corsicana total. This was due to the gar present in Lake Corsicana but not present in Lake Halbert. OBJECTIVES 3 To determine the species present and their abundance as well as to determine the ecological factors influencing their distribution. METHODS : Net and seine collections were started in Lake Halbert in November 1957 and in March 1958 collections were begun in Lake Corsicana. These lakes are only five miles apart and both are located on the Chambers Creek watershed. The specimens taken in gill nets were weighed, measured and examined for sexual maturity, food habits, parasites and disease. This data was recorded on forms pre- pared for this purpose and filed for future reference. Net collections were made at established netting stations at monthly intervals in both lakes and seine stations were established and run at suitable times. The specimens taken by seining were identified and tabulated. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS: Lake Halbert is the primary water supply for the City of Corsicans, Texas. --- Page 2 --- It is located on Elm Creek and is a watershed lake of some 7,600 acre foot capacity. This is a shallow mud bottom lake that is heavily infested with lotus (Nelumbo pentapetala) in the upper end. The shoreline is fairly regular with shallow margins that become muddy with rains. The flat terrain offers little protection from high winds which keep the water murky by stirring up the silt. Lake Corsicana is located alongside Chambers Creek about six miles east of Corsicana and is a secondary water supply. This lake has very little watershed and obtains water by pumping from Chambers Creek. There is no dam and an earthen em- bankment forms three sides of the lake with water deeper along the side nearest to Chambers Creek. Lake Corsicana contains some 4,000 acre feet of water and has a bottom composed of clay with some gravel. There is little vegetation present in this lake. RESULTS : The checklist of species (Table 1) shows 24 species representing 18 genera and ll families. Lake Halbert contained four species that were not found in Lake Corsicana but did not have a genus not present in the other lake. Black bulihead, yellow bull- head, warmouth and redear sunfish were the species limited to the Lake Halbert col- lections. Lake Corsicana contained five species, two genera and two families not taken from Lake Halbert. Spotted gar, longnose gar, blackstripe topminnow, spotted bass, and green sunfish were taken only in Lake Corsicana. The presence of gar in lake Corsicana may be explained in the fact that water for this reservoir is pumped from Chambers Creek while that for Lake Halbert is from a limited watershed. Four seine stations were established in each lake. The predominant species taken by seining was bluegill sunfish with 79.7 percent of the Lake Halbert cateh and 43.9 percent of the Lake Corsicana sample (Table 2). Gizzard shad and yellow bullheads were collected from Lake Halbert but were not found in Lake Corsicana while black~- stripe topminnow and green sunfish appeared only in the seine samples from Lake Corsicana, Table 3 presents a comparison of the rough species and game species in both lakes. The average weight per specimen was much higher in Lake Corsicana with 1.08 pounds while Lake Halbert fish averaged only .55 pounds. This no doubt dus to the gar that were present only in Lake Corsicana. Game fish exceeded the rough species in numbers taken in both lakes but the average weight per rough fish was much higher than that of game species in Lake Corsicana while the game species held a slight advantage in Lake Halbert. The comparison of the population of the two lakes shows Lake Halbert to have 31.74 percent rough fish by weight and 35.22 percent by number while Lake Corsicana has 80.55 percent rough fish by weight and 44.77 percent by number. The average lengths and weights (Table 4 and 5) offer some interesting contrasts since except for the gizzard shad all rough species common to both lakes are decidely larger in Lake Corsicana. The opposite is true of the game species where Lake Halbert provides the larger specimens in each species found in toth lakes. Tables 6 and 7 present the comparison of the populations of the two lakes in terms of numbers and percentage of the catch represented by each species taken in --- Page 3 --- gill nets. White crappie dominated the catch in both lakes with 4.6.32 percent in Lake Halbert and 33.01 percent in Lake Corsicana. This dominance by white crappie in Lake Halbert is also indicated in the total weights where 33.04 percent were of this species. White crappie provided only 3.82 percent of the total weight in Lake Corsicana {Tables 8 and 9). Gizzard shad were negligible in the catch from Lake Corsicana in both number and weight but comprised 27.75 percent of the number and 19.89 percent of the weight of all fish taken from Lake Halbert (Tables 6 and 3}. The channel catfish make up 6.16 percent of the total number and 10.87 percent: of the total weight in Lake Halbert and largemouth bass provide 6.26 percent and 20.29 percent of the number and weight respectively (tables 6 and 8). These same sx taken from Lake Corsicana show rather different results since the channel o make up 16.59 percent of the number and 11.83 percent of the weight while largemouth bass with 1.61 percent of the number provided 2.03 percent of the weight (Tables 7 and 9). Spotted gar and longnose gar accounted for a small percentage of the aumber taken from Lake Corsicana with .33 percent and 9.66 percent respectively but produced 255 percent and 44.16 percent of the total weight (Tables 7 and 9}. Carpsuckers were of no importance in the net catch from Lake Halbert as they represented only 1.01 percent of the number and 1.10 percent of the total weight but in Laks Corsicana this species comprised 32.37 percent of the number and 31. 60 percent of the weight to rank second to white crappie as the most numerous species and second to the longnose gar in total weight. The productivities of Lakes Halbert and Corsicana are compared in Tables 10 and ll, where the catch per 100 feet of gill net set overnight is given. A total o fourty-four gill nets were set in Lake Halbert and nineteen in Lake Corsicana. net sets totaled 4,475 feet in Lake Halbert and 1,975 feet in Lake Corsicana. The 991 fish caught from Lake Halbert weighed a total of 546 pounds which was an average of 12.22 pounds per 100 feet of net set overnight. This is somewhat less than the average from Lake Corsicana when 621 fish weighed 668.67 pounds and averaged 32.85 pounds per 100 feet of net on an overnight set. The difference in numbers caught was not so pronounced for Lake Halbert produced 22.14 fish per 100 feet of net while Lake Corsicana produced 31.44 fish. mH © Mhesge Table le presents data concerning the frequency of occurrence of food organisms in the stomachs of fish collected from both fake Halbert, that contained food showed a preference for fi crappie and channel catfish accounting for the majority of 1 same preference is to be noted among the 75 fish from Lake Cors food, Prepared by Leonard D.
