Abstract

The Largemouth Bass Micropterus salmoides, a popular sport fish, is subjected to multiple sublethal stressors during angling, including high water temperature, exercise, handling, live-well retention, and weigh-in procedures. Combined effects of ambient and live-well temperatures on the stress...

Abstract

Sportfishing and hatchery practices routinely subject fish to acute temperature changes through placement of fish in live wells and normal handling and transportation procedures. Acute temperature changes alter metabolic rate in ectotherms; however, the rapidity of the response to reach a new...

Abstract

Methylmercury is a global pollutant of aquatic ecosystems, and monitoring programs need tools to predict mercury exposure of wildlife. We developed equations to estimate methylmercury exposure of piscivorous birds and sport fish using mercury concentrations in prey fish. We collected original data...

Abstract

Largemouth Bass Micropterus salmoides, Florida Bass Micropterus floridanus, and their intergrade are socially and economically valuable sport fish. In the southeastern United States, it is customary for fisheries personnel to age black bass Micropterus species using sagittal otoliths, which...

Abstract

Freshwater ecosystems are highly vulnerable to the detrimental impacts of both biological invasions and climate change. Piscivorous alien fishes drive populations of small-bodied native fishes to extinction and warming is already driving extreme temperature events in lakes and rivers globally....

Abstract

Angler satisfaction is based on the presence of catchable fish, and therefore, understanding the mechanisms driving catchability is important for fisheries biologists and managers. Lure avoidance learning (including via social learning) may be a driver of catchability, but these mechanisms have not ...

Abstract

Estimating fishing mortality, including initial and delayed mortality, is necessary to assess potential effects of catch and release tournament fishing events. Previous studies retaining angler-caught fish are useful in understanding delayed mortality but have associated limitations. As an...

Abstract

Tournament mortality of Largemouth Bass Micropterus salmoides can be a major source of population mortality. Tournament captures and mortality may be reduced through restrictive harvest regulations (bag and length limits), but these approaches for mitigating tournament mortality have not been...

Abstract

The invasive snakehead fish, which is native to Africa, Asia, Indonesia, and Malaysia, has been found in nine states in the United States and has notably developed a reproducing population in South Florida, Maryland, and Hawaii. This case study discusses the environmental impact and policies...

Abstract

Hydrology has been documented as affecting the recruitment of sport fishes. However, the potential cumulative effects of river hydrology on fish growth have not been intensively studied. In 2004, 2005, and 2010, annual growth increments were measured for Largemouth Bass Micropterus salmoides and...
