Summary: The researchers will conduct a mobile hydroacoustic survey from a 20 ft. boat using a BioSonics dual-beam echo-sounder and recording system. A limited amount of gillnetting will be conducted to provide groundtruthing information for the acoustic data. Target strength analysis will also be conducted....
