Of those fish, the vast majority (675) were Lake Trout. Only 33 Salmon were entered. The Ministry of Natural Resources sampled 332 of the 675 Lake Trout, seven of the Chinook Salmon, three Rainbow Trout and one Atlantic Salmon. Three people from the Lake Superior Fisheries Unit (LSFU) and three from the Terrace Bay District office performed the sam- pling procedures. Fish from the 1988 derby were caught in Management Zones 11 - west of Rossport (48 per cent), Zone 12 - south of St. Ignace Islands (18 per cent), Zone 18 - the Slate Islands (28 per cent) and' Zone 19 - east of the Slate Islands (five per cent). Thirty-seven per cent of the trout caught were natives with Zone 18 (the Slate Islands) being the exception. Although more stocked fish were caught, they were generally smaller than the native fish although both native and planted fish were smaller than the previous year. Of the trout sampled, 43 per cent were males and 57 per cent were females. The per cent of wounded fish increased considerably from 0.8 per cent in 1987 to 4.2 per cent in 1988. The largest Lake Trout weighed 7.0 kg while two Chinook Salmon tied for first place weighing in at 6.85 kg. Of the sampled native Lake Trout, the average fork length was 52.4 cm (20.6 inches) and the average weight was just over 1.8 kg. Stocked Lake Trout averaged 48 cm (18.9 inches) with an aver- age weight of slightly over 1.3 kg. Of the Lake Trout sampled during the 1988 Rossport Fish Derby, Management Zone 12 showed the least amount of wounded fish (1.7 per cent) and Zone 19 had the most wounded fish (5.9 per cent). Zone 11 and Zone 18 had 5.6 and 3.2 per cent wounded fish respectively. Zone 18 had the longest aver- age length of Lake Trout of 51 cm (20,1 inches). Zone 12 was next with an average length of 50.5 cm (19.9 inches) followed by Zone 11 - 48.7 cm (19.17 inches) and Zone 19 - 47.9 cm (18.86 inches). The largest Lake Trout was caught in Zone 12 and was 82 cm (32.3 inches). The second largest trout was caught in Zone 18 and was 76 cm (29.9 inches). The largest trout caught in Zone 11 was 68 cm (26.8 inches) and in Zone 19 the largest trout was 58 cm (22.8 inches). Not surprisingly, the average weight of trout caught was great- est in Zone 12 (1.66 kg). Next was Zone 18 (1.63 kg) followed by Zone 11 (1.44 kg) and Zone 19 (1.29 kg). The cost of sampling the fish came to a total of $1.88 per sam- ple. Here's hoping some of these Statistics, facts and figures will enhance your chances of coming up with one of the winning fish at next year's Rossport Fish Derby.
