Southern California partyboat sampling study Quarterly Report no. 1

Estimates of the total yearly catch from the partyboat fishery have been collected and published on a routine basis since 1935. Important data relating to the size and age composition of this segment of the marine sportfishery have been lacking. As a consequence, a southern California partyboat sampling study was initiated on April 1, 1975. The main objective of this sampling is to identify and measure all fishes taken by sportsmen on partyboatswith primary emphasis given to California barracuda, Sphyraena argentea; yellowtail, Seriola dorsalis; white seabass, Cynoscion nobilis; and rockfishes, Sebastes spp. (22pp.)
