Description

Abstract: A market sampling program was started in 1948 by the Oregon Fish Commission to collect biological data from certain bottomfish species, Dover sole (Miorostomus pacificus), English sole (Parophrys vetulus), and petrale sole (Eopsetta jordani) were selected because of their importance in bottomfish landings. In late 1950 a similar program was undertaken on Pacific ocean perch (Sebastodes alutus). Market samples were collected routinely, usually weekly, as time and manpower permitted, Most sampling occurred during summer months when fishing activity was greatest. Fish were usually measured to the nearest lower centimeter and sexed. In cases where fish were measured to the millimeter or half-centimeter, data were tabulated to the nearest lower centimeter.
