Title: Capture and release of Fish
Post by: Vadermort on 24/08/2006 05:03:33

Hey EVERYONE!!!!
For a group 4 project that I am taking part in, we want to capture and release fish in our campus lake to determine population size. What I need help with is what is the proper method for catching them with nets, tagging them releasing them?"
Bear in mind that we are in a small high school in the middle of China with limited resources. No electro shocking so nets will to be implemented. I hear gill nets kill the fish. We dont want that. I on behalf of my biology class would appreciate any help or suggestions that is posted.
Thanks Y'all!
