Description

As the agency reported it.

The texas a & m university-corpus christi (tamu-CC) will estimate the post-release mortality rate of cobia captured in the gulf of mexico (GOM) recreational fishery while providing key information on stock structure using advanced electronic tagging. To achieve this goal, they will build on their strong preliminary data by using well-established relationships between PIS and anglers to tag 50 cobia with POP-up satellite archival tags (psats) aboard multiple vessels across the GOM (texas to florida). Sensors in the psats will allow tamu-CC to collect high-resolution data on the behavior, but more importantly to directly assess the fate (i.e., mortality) of cobia following release. In addition to providing an estimate of post-release mortality, they will use their network of citizen scientists to expand conventional tagging efforts in the GOM to provide new information on seasonal movements and stock structure while collecting ancillary trip data (including landings and discards) that
