Vertical Line Survey (2011)

Metadata Updated: April 1, 2024

The Southeast Fisheries Science Center Mississippi Laboratories conducts standardized fisheries independent resource surveys in the Gulf of Mexico, South Atlantic, and U.S. Caribbean to provide abundance and distribution information to support regional and international stock assessments. In 2011, the R/V Gandy conducted a survey of reef fish located on the continental shelf and shelf-edge of the western Gulf of Mexico using bandit reels (vertical lines). Data were collected using using ten gangions, five #11/0 circle hooks and five #8/0 circle hooks. The data provided additional life history information for a red snapper benchmark stock assessment.
