INTRODUCTION
In March of 1975 the Montana Department of Health and Environmental
Sciences (DHES) requested that the Surveillance and Analysis Division,
E.P.A. Region VIII, conduct a fishery survey of the Poplar River, Montana.
The request was initiated when DHES personnel learned that a new coal-
fired generating station had been proposed by the Saskatchewan Power
Corporation in Canada. The station will be located on the East Fork
of the Poplar River near Coronach, Saskatchewan and will discharge an
effluent high in total dissolved solids. Drainage from coal stockpiles
and fly-ash lagoons may also contribute toxic materials to the river.
The Poplar River originates in Canada and flows south into Montana
for 160.9 kilometers (100 miles) where it joins with the Missouri
River near Poplar, Montana (Figure 1). The Poplar River was reported to
support a resident walleye (Stizostedion vitreum) fishery downstream
from the town of Scoby, Montana and to serve as an important spawning
and nursery area for both resident fish and migrating Missouri River
fish. As a result, the requested purpose of the survey was to determine
the relative abundance, distribution and habitat utilization of sport
fishes in the river. In response to the request a two phase study
was suggested which would assess the spring spawning activities of the
walleye (S_. vitreum) and northern pike (Esox lucius) which are the
predominant sport fishes in the river, and would also determine relative
abundance, habitat utilization, and distributions of sport fishes
during critical summer low flow conditions. During the remainder of
1975 the DHES was to conduct water quality and macro-invertebrate
population studies on the stream. The Montana Department of Fish and
Game was to conduct mark and recovery studies on the existing sport
fisheries in order to estimate population size and determine the extent
of migrations throughout the system.
METHODS
Fish sampling was conducted with trap nets, seines or electrofishing.
Trap nets used during the survey had 0.76 by 0.91 meter (2.5 ft. x 3 ft.)
frames or 0.76 by 1.52 meter (2.5 ft. x 5 ft.) 'frames. Smaller nets
had a 0.63 cm. mesh {h in.) and the larger frame nets had 1.27 cm.(^ in.)
mesh. All trap nets were set for 24 hour periods. Data from the trap
nets are reported in Tables 1 and 2 (Appendix).
Two haul seines were used to capture fish from pool areas. A
1.83 meter by 30.48 meter (6 ft. x 100 ft.) net with 1.27 cm. {h in.)
mesh was used in small pools. Larger pools required the use of a 3.05 by
76.2 meter (10 ft. x 250 ft.) net with 2.54 cm. mesh. Fish caught by
seine are reported in Table 3 (Appendix).
Electrofishing was conducted with a Coffelt1 system capable of
generating a maximum of 300 volts, 10 amps, and 200 pulses per second.
A single probe with 91.4 meters (300 ft.) of cable was used to shock
fish. Fish shocking data are presented in Table 4.

Water samples were collected for total suspended solids (TSS),
total dissolved solids (TDS) and metals. TDS and TSS samples were
preserved with wet ice. Samples for metals analysis were preserved
with 5 ml of HNOo per liter of sample and analyzed (as is, not digested)
by atomic absorption. Results are reported as acid recoverable. All
TSS, TDS and metals samples were transported to the Region VIII E.P.A.
laboratory in Denver for analysis.
Selected parameters were measured in the field at each sampling
station. The parameters and methods used to analyze them were as follows:
pH with an I.L. meter and probe, conductivity with a Beckman conductivity
meter, temperature with a hand held dial thermometer and flows with
a Kahlisco Pygmy current meter. Dissolved oxygen samples were collected,
fixed in the field and analyzed later.
Descriptions of .sampling station locations are listed in Table 5.
Figure 2 depicts the locations of the sampling stations.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Fish
During the May (Spring) survey water levels were high (70 c.f.s.
at the Canada-U.S. border, EF-6) and permitted fish to scatter through-
out the system instead of congregating the deeper runs and pools.
Thus, large numbers of fish were not captured. Trap nets only were used
to capture fish at selected sampling sites. Numbers of fish captured
are listed in Table 1 and the distribution of sport fishes as indicated
by catch data is shown in Figure 3. Walleye were collected from each
section of the Poplar River system, indicating their use of each
drainage area during Spring flow conditions (Figure 3). Very few fish
were caught at the station near the mouth (PR-1). However, the survey was
conducted immediately after high water conditions and migrating fish may
have already passed the station. A male walleye was cptured on the East
Fork approximately two miles downstream from the border (EF-5). North-
ern pike were collected'on the upper main stem (PR-4) and West Fork (WF-1).
Only one ripe fish was captured during the May survey.
Water quality as measured during the Spring survey was sufficient
to support fish life at all stations (Table 6).
The Summer (July-August) survey was more intensive. Seines, electro-
fishing equipment, and trap nets were used to capture fish. Figure 4
and Tables 2, 3, and 4 list fish caught during the survey. Flows were lower
than those in the Spring sampling period (Table 7) and more fish were congre-
gated in the deeper pools. Young of the year walleye or first year fish
were captured in the East and Middle Forks near the U.S.-Canada border
(Stations MF-5 and EF-6). The presence of first year fish in these areas

indicates adult fish are using the river for spawning, probably in the
general vicinity of the stations where the young fish were captured. Also,
some portions of the river were being used as rearing .areas for juvenile
fish. Adult walleye were found throughout the Poplar River system with the
largest concentrations of fish located near the confluence of the East and
Middle Forks (Figure 4).
Northern pike were captured in the East and Middle Forks and in
the main stem. No northern pike were captured in the West Fork. Young
of the year pike were collected from the upper Middle Fork (MF-5) and the
lower main stem (PR-2).
Smallmouth Bass were collected from the lower main stem (PR-2),
the lower West Fork (WF-2) and the upper main stem (PR-3), (Figure 4).
Most of the fish caught during the summer survey were inhabiting
deep pools in the stream; very few fish were taken from riffle areas.
The upper section of the East Fork (EF-4-6) did not support many game
fish during this survey (Figure 4). The stream bottom in the upper
East Fork was soft mud and walleyes, which require rocky riffle areas
for spawning, would find very few areas suitable for egg deposition.
Both the Middle Fork and main stem had rock substrates in riffle areas
where adult walleye could spawn and replenish the population. The
West Fork supported game fish only as far upstream as Station WF-2. No
game fish were found at the upstream stations (WF-3 through 6). At
these stations the West Fork had no measurable flow and consisted of
pools bordered by extensive growths of aquatic weeds. Forage or non-
game fish were abundant in the upper sections of all three forks.
WATER CHEMISTRY
Analysis of water samples collected from the Poplar River system
during the Summer survey did not reveal any chemical constituents
..that would be acutely toxic to fish (Tables 7 and 8). Sodium and
boron values were high but probably would not affect the present fishery.
Aluminum values were high (up to 2500 yg/£ at PR-2 and 2100 yg/s, at MF-3)
and if allowed to increase could affect the fishery. Ionized or potentially
ionizable aluminum as anionic or neutral precipitates may be deleterious to
growth and survival at concentrations greater than 0.1 mg/£ (E.P.A., 1972).
Total dissolved sol i.ds ranged from a low of 770 mg/£ in the West
Fork (WF-1) to a high of 1650 mg/x. in the East Fork (EF-6) on August 29.
Specific conductivities, which usually reflect TDS values varied from 940
at WF-4 to 2300 micromhos on the East Fork (EF-6) on July 31 and 1038 to
2410 micromhos (WF-4 and EF-6) on July 29. In laboratory studies

-------
- 4 -
Peterka (1972) determined that water of 1300 micromhos did not affect
the hatching of walleye and northern pike eggs. At 4000 micromhos
there was no hatching of walleye eggs and poor hatching of northern
pike eggs. Thus, increases in TDS during the spawning or hatching
season could have a detrimental effect on the existing fisheries.
At times the summer water temperatures may reach the maximum range
for the sport fishes. For example, on July 29 stream temperatures
ranged from 24 to 30 C. The maximum temperatures recommended for
walleye and pike are approximately 29 C (National Technical Advisory
Comm., 1968). If water temperatures increase above the 30 C level the
sport fish populations will be adversely affected.
CONCLUSIONS
The Poplar River supports a walleye fishery throughout most of
the system. The most important area, as reflected by numbers of fish
captured, was in the vicinity of the East and Middle Fork confluences.
More fish were found in the main stem just downstream from the confluence
and immediately upstream on both forks than in any other reach of the
river. Northern pike were found mainly in the main stem and Middle
Fork. Young of the year sport fish were captured in the Middle and
East Forks and main stem indicating the use of these stream reaches
as spawning and rearing areas. During the Spring, stream flows were
high and fish spread throughout the river system. In the Summer, low
water flows resulted in fish inhabiting the deeper pools within the
stream.
Chemical analysis of water samples revealed high concentrations
of aluminum and total dissolved salts (TDS). Aluminum values were
as high as 2500 yg/£, and total dissolved salts produced a specific
conductance of 2410 micromhos on the upper East Fork. Increases in
either aluminum or TDS could adverselyaaffect the fish populations.
During the Surrmer survey, water temperatures were at or above the
maximum temperatures recommended for walleye and northern pike. As
a result, if the existing fishery is to be protected efforts should
be made to prevent any withdrawal of water or added effluent from
increasing temperatures, TDS or aluminum concentrations beyond those
already observed.
