Fish and Wildlife Service

Description

This project will help monitor the fishery in Pyramid Lake, Nevada. This is a collaboration between the Lahontan Nation Fish Hatchery Complex (LNFHC), Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe (PLPT) and Utah State University to implement the desired monitoring tier that was outlined in the Pyramid Lake management plan. Successful management of this fishery will require adequate and consistent monitoring of Lahontan Cutthroat Trout and Tui Chub abundance in order to facilitate successful adaptive management decision making. By implementing the Tier 1 monitoring plan we will be addressing Department of the Interior financial assistance Priority 1 and Priority 2 by helping the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe maintain this legacy fishery which will allow this unique natural resource to be utilized by future generations.
