Growth of Skipjack Katsuwonus pelamis from Mozambique
Growth of skipjack, Katsuwonus pelamis in Mozambican waters was studied, using fork length data collected in 1983-1985, during an experimental pole-and-line/live-bait fishing program. Tentative estimates of growth parameters are FL∞=80 cm, K=0.6 yearˉ¹. Some evidence for seasonal growth is presented, along with a discussion of the limitations of the data set used in the investigation.
