Opportunity Information: Apply for F19AS00105
The Pyramid Lake Creel Survey grant opportunity is a U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service discretionary grant (Funding Opportunity Number F19AS00105; CFDA 15.608) intended to support on-the-ground fisheries monitoring at Pyramid Lake, Nevada. The project centers on a partnership between the Lahontan National Fish Hatchery Complex (LNFHC) and the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe (PLPT), with the Tribe identified as the recipient. The planned work focuses on implementing creel surveys, which are structured interviews and observations used to measure fishing effort, catch rates, and angler experiences in real time.
Under the project, survey staff would interact directly with anglers at Pyramid Lake to gather practical, field-based information such as what species and numbers of fish are being caught, where on the lake fishing is occurring, and how anglers rate the quality of their fishing trip. This type of information helps fisheries managers move beyond assumptions and anecdotes by producing consistent, measurable data that can be tracked across seasons and years. Because Pyramid Lake supports an important Lahontan Cutthroat Trout fishery, the information collected is specifically positioned to help evaluate how well the Lahontan Cutthroat Trout stocking program is performing, how the overall fishery is doing, and whether management actions are translating into successful angling outcomes.
A core purpose of the grant is to strengthen the ability of LNFHC and PLPT to assess both the effectiveness of stocking efforts and the broader health of the fishery. Creel data can inform questions like whether stocked fish are being caught at expected rates, how fishing success varies by location and time, and how angler use and satisfaction change over the course of a season. These insights can guide decisions about future stocking strategies and help detect emerging issues that might require management attention. The opportunity also emphasizes public-facing benefits: the survey process creates direct contact with anglers, which can be used to share information about Pyramid Lake as a native fishery and to explain the goals and value of the Lahontan Cutthroat Trout program for current and future recreation.
The notice makes clear that this is not a competitive funding opportunity. It is described as a Notice of Intent to make an award to the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe, with no competition expected and an explicit instruction not to respond. The anticipated funding level is relatively small and targeted, with an award ceiling of $40,000 and one expected award. The opportunity was posted on February 13, 2019, with an original closing date of February 14, 2019, reflecting that it functioned as an administrative notice for a planned sole-source award rather than an open call for applications.
Overall, the grant is designed to fund real-time monitoring of angler activity and catch outcomes at Pyramid Lake, using standardized creel survey methods to support management of the Lahontan Cutthroat Trout fishery. It aligns with Department of the Interior financial assistance priorities by emphasizing timely data collection on public use and fishery success, while also using the survey effort as a chance to educate anglers and build understanding of the stocking program and the lake's native fishery resources.Apply for F19AS00105
