Estimation Of Relative Abundance Of Recreationally Important Finfish In The Virginia Portion Of Chesapeake Bay: Annual Progress Report 2000-2001, Patrick J. Geer, Herbert M. Austin

Reports

Several annual indices of juvenile abundance have been generated from trawl survey data for species of key recreational importance in the Virginia portion of Chesapeake Bay (spot, croaker, weakfish, summer flounder, black sea bass and striped bass, white and channel catfish) and four species of secondary importance (scup, white perch, northern puffer, and silver perch).

However, several species have revealed declines (spot, scup, and northern puffer) or increases (striped bass) in recent years. Results for the 2000 sampling season indicate significant declines over …
