Fishing Striped Bass? We need your help!

UINR is looking for fishers to help us gather genetic information on Striped Bass to determine spawning origin.

We are asking fishers who retain fish to collect fin clips and measure length (and stomach contents are helpful).

If you fish or are planning to fish for Striped Bass along the eastern coast of Cape Breton and/or the Bras d’Or Lakes, we would like to work with you.

UINR will provide training, data collection kits, and $10 per fin clip with measurement.

Text or call Shelley Denny 902-578-4340 if you are interested.
