Progress report of research on white seabass, Cynoscion nobilis

A report is made on the feasibility studies of discriminating possible sub-populations, migratory patterns, and maturity of white seabass, Cynoscion nobilis. Biochemical investigations were encouraging and may prove useful in future studies of population structure. The low catch rate of white seabass in southern California precluded tagging substantial numbers of fish and studies of their migratory habits have been terminated until fishing improves.Insufficient numbers of fish also made successful completion of maturity studies impossible and this project is being held in abeyance at the present time.
