- Electrofishing Catch Per Unit Effort and Relative Abundance
Introduction and Methods:
Historically, in Nev.rton Lake, at least six (but usually twelve) hours ofelectrofishing per
year has been done by the Illinois Department ofNatural Resources (IDNR).
- All electrofishing
data collected by IDNR will be used to compare pre- and post-Variance catch-per-hour (CPUE)
by species, relative weight, relative abundance and structural indices.
- CPUE and relative abundance, etc., results were compared
to the 1995 Environmental Science and Engineering, Inc.
- IDNR has agreed to collect fall data each year
ofthis study from Coffeen Lake.
- Largemouth bass were
second most frequently...
