Hi all,
A report about this year's tagging is here:
https://nrm.dfg.ca.gov/FileHandler.ashx?DocumentId=146153
Nothing earth-shattering, lots of striped bass, few salmonids, no sturgeon (a surprise), some rare striped bass milling behavior detected, and striped bass sex ratios back to 'normal' compared to last year --- though still heavily skewed compared to decades ago.
Like last year, we included length-frequency distributions of the striped bass caught by the Fisheries Branch steelhead-trapping crew. They too caught lots of striped bass.
Reports about tagging in other years are here:

Thanks
