Summary, Etc. Note: |
Abstract: Large trap nets were evaluated as a commercial gear for capturing buffalo fish during July-September 1965. During the 72-day bigmouth buffalo dominated the catch (78.2% by weight). Eight sport species accounted for 3.6% of the total catch. Both 7.0-cm and 12.7-cm mesh (extended measure) were used in the back of the bailing crib of the nets to determine the effect of the 12.7-cm mesh in reducing the catch of sport species and nonmarketable size groups of commercial species. |
