   Andy Burt, a fisheries biologist with the Ohio Division of Wildlife's District Three office in Akron, explained that bass management activities are in full swing and on target.
   ...
   According to Burt, bass populations in the best lakes will be checked two or three times every six years, so that biologists can keep up with the shifting population trends and make sure that habitat improvement, minimum-length and slot limits, and other management measures keep up with what's going on in the lake. Electroshocking and netting surveys are used by biologists to capture bass to be checked for size, weight and general health.
   
   The IMS program will provide up-to-date information on bass numbers and sizes in a given body of water, as well as make management decisions more effective. Tappan and Berlin reservoirs will be the new reference lakes and will be surveyed every year. Burt expects that the results of the samplings will be on the division's Web site within the next year or so.

   The Ohio Department of Natural Resources thinks the state's introduction program that began in 1994 is working, said aquatic biologist Andy Burt of the Division of Wildlife.
   
   One of only two surviving Ohio streams that were home to the brook trout was lost to development. It was later acquired, rebuilt and stocked with young trout that are thriving.
   
   "We're not stocking to create a fishery. We're stocking for conservation and to restore a species," Burt said.
   ...
   In mid-2004, the state will analyze the success of the trout re-introduction, but it appears that the fish may be capable of surviving at perhaps as many as five new sites, Burt said.
   
   That includes a tributary of the Rocky River in Medina County.
   
   In all, the state has "high hopes" for that site and four other stocking sites in Geauga County, in addition to three streams where the fish were found, Burt said.
