The first season of field sampling is well underway. We began sampling for our target fish species - snook, red drum, sheepshead, and spotted seatrout - in early April, throughout six sub-regions of Tampa Bay. Our goal is to catch 10 of each species, in each of the sub-regions, 4x\/year. Catch locations and species (as of May 20th) can be seen in the map above.<\/p>\n<\/div>
