We are funded!!!

We want to take a minute and thank each of our project supporters for making this happen. It is going to be a lot of long nights to complete this project. However, we believe this study will not only benefit the scientific community but also the local fishing community here on Mississippi's Gulf Coast. Please stay tuned as we will continue to update you with new Lab Notes from Experiment.com as we collect data in the months to come.

Thanks again,

Chris and Justin

About This Project

Center for Fisheries Research and Development, The University of Southern Mississippi

Spotted seatrout (Cynoscion nebulosus) is the most popular recreational species along the coast of Mississippi. Although we have a general understanding about the prey species spotted seatrout eat, stomach contents of fish collected during the day are often too digested to identify beyond broad categories like fish or shrimp. We will sample spotted seatrout from the late evening to early morning, a time believed to be their most active feeding period.

Blast off!
