Summary, Etc. Note: |
Abstract: White bass in Bull Shoals Reservoir were studied from October 1963 through January 1966 to determine age, growth, sex composition, and maturity. Average calculated total length for males and females were calculated at the end of each year of life through six years. Growth in Bull Shoals is similar to that of other southern waters. Growth was faster but lifespan shorter than in northern waters. Females outnumbered males 1.7 to 1. All 2-year old white bass were sexually mature, but most males were mature and only a few females were mature at 1 year. Large fluctuations in year-class strength were evident. |
