    GALIANO CONSERVANCY ASSOCIATION Rockfish populations around Galiano Island Freedom to Swim: Research Component for Rockfish Recovery Project 2013 Rockfish populations around Galiano Island Page 2 of 18 Executive Summary Rockfish (Sebastes), of the Scorpionfish family, are unique to the Pacific Northwest. As of 2012 there are 8 species listed as threatened or of special concern by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC). Canary, Quillback and Yellowmouth rockfish are listed as ‘threatened’; Rougheye Type I, Rougheye Type II, Darkblotched, Longspine Thornyhead, and Yelloweye (outside waters and inside waters populations) rockfish are listed as ‘special concern’. Both species of Rougheye and both populations of Yelloweye rockfish are also listed under the Species At Risk Act as ‘special concern’. These predatory fish can live at great depths, and tend to live very long lives of 80 or more years (Lamb and Edgell, 2010). These factors, when combined with their primarily territorial lifestyles, have made them particularly susceptible to overharvest. There is a strong need to protect these species with enforced no‐take marine protected areas, and we can only hope that recent conservation efforts will be enough to recover some of the most depleted populations (Lamb and Edgell, 2010; McConnell and Dinnel, 2002). In the late 1980s the commercial rockfish fishery boomed, which led to a series of management responses in the 1990s to attempt to recover the rapidly depleting stocks in BC (Yamanaka and Logan, 2010). This also occurred in the US as a direct result of pressure on the salmon stocks ‐ fishermen were urged to divert their attentions to bottom fish (McConnell and Dinnel, 2002).

Two common shades of colour, illustrated on a specimen 10 inches long. near Nootka but was not examined. In August, 1939, west of Cape St. James, Lat. 52° 49' N, Long. 1340 29' W, three specimens were obtained on a tuna lure and were recorded in 1940 by V. J. Samson. The albacore has been captured off the west coast of Vancouver Island in increasing numbers since 1939. The first large commercial catch was made in 1940. The abundance of the fish has proven to be rather variable in Canadian waters as it has off the California coast. This pelagic fish is distributed throughout all warm to temperate seas. Since no mature individuals have been taken anywhere along the Pacific coast of North America, it would seem that the albacore is a tropical fish whose young make extensive feeding migrations to distant regions and return to the tropics at the onset of maturity. The food consists of schooling small fishes such as anchovies, pilchards, herring, saunes, young mackerel and albacore, blue lanternfish (Tarle- tonbeania crenularis), as well as squid and zooplankton. It is a highly-prized sport and commercial fish and is taken with jigs made of bone, rags and feathers, towed behind boats. The commercial catch in Canadian waters is secured by trolling with bright red feather lures and is frozen for the most part, for subsequent canning. Fishermen sometimes refer to the albacore as the tuna or longfin tuna.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Marine Fisheries Service NOAA TECHNICAL REPORT NMFS The major responsibilities of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) are to monitor and assess the abundance and geographic distribution of fishery resources, to understand and predict fluctuations in the quantity and distribution of these resources, and to establish levels for their optimum use. NMFS is also charged with the development and implementation of policies for managing national fishing grounds, development and enforcement of domestic fisheries regulations, surveillance of foreign fishing off United States coastal waters, and the development and enforcement of international fishery agreements and policies. NMFS also assists the fishing industry through marketing service and economic analysis programs. and mortgage insurance and vessel construction subsidies. It collects, analyzes, and publishes statistics on various phases of the industry. The NOAA Technical Report NMFS series was established in 1983 to replace two subcategories of the Technical Reports series: "Special Scientific Report-Fisheries" and "Circular." The series contains the following types of reports: Scientific investigations that document long-term continuing programs of NMFS; intensive scientific reports on studies of restricted scope; papers on applied fishery problems; technical reports of general interest intended to aid conservation and management; reports that review in con­ siderable detail and at a high technical level certain broad areas of research; and technical papers originating in economics studies and from management investigations.

  • Using DNA Barcoding to Identify Mislabeled Fish
    CALIFORNIA SCIENCE & ENGINEERING FAIR 2019 PROJECT SUMMARY Name(s) Project Number Emma Schaefer-Whittall S0520 Project Title Something's Fishy: Using DNA Barcoding to Identify Mislabeled Fish Abstract Objectives I investigated whether the fish that is being sold at Bay Area grocery stores is the same species as what it is being advertised as. I preformed DNA extraction and sequenced the base pairs in order to compare it to the FDA s Seafood Labeling List. Methods I collected 37 fillets of fish (petrale sole, dover sole, red snapper, rockfish, rock cod, and halibut) from grocery stores around Santa Cruz County and Santa Clara County. I extracted the DNA and amplified the specific DNA sequence that codes for the enzyme Cytochrome Oxidase I (COI), one of the enzymes that is part of the electron transport chain in the mitochondria. The amplified DNA was then sent to Sequetech, a local sequencing company. I matched the sample sequence with the known sequences of the advertised fish. From this analysis, I was able to identify the true identity of the grocery store fish samples. Results I successfully sequenced the DNA of 24 out of 37 of the fish collected. Six fish samples out of a total of 24 samples were mislabeled (25%). 100% of red snapper (2/2) and rock cod (3/3) samples were mislabeled. Shopper s Corner, a locally owned grocery store, had 2/3 of their samples mislabeled. Conclusions The BLAST method and phylogenetic analysis both identified the same six mislabeled samples. Fish can be mislabeled accidentally or intentionally. Accidental mislabeling is most likely when common names are similar such as rock cod and rockfish .

  • Exploring the Life-History Implications of Colour Variation in Offshore Gulf of Maine Cod (Gadus Morhua)
    ICES Journal of Marine Science Advance Access published July 29, 2010 Page 1 of 10 Exploring the life-history implications of colour variation in offshore Gulf of Maine cod (Gadus morhua) Graham D. Sherwood and Jonathan H. Grabowski Sherwood, G. D., and Grabowski, J. H. 2010. Exploring the life-history implications of colour variation in offshore Gulf of Maine cod (Gadus morhua). – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 67: 000–000. The evolution of alternative life-history strategies in fish has largely been overlooked by fisheries managers, although differences in the biology of life-history variants can have important implications for the scale and productivity of fisheries. Cod display strikingly variable colouration in the Gulf of Maine, with red- and olive-coloured cod found in close sympatry. Colour types from Cashes Ledge, a shallow, offshore (100 km) feature, are examined to see whether they differ in key life-history traits including diet, depth distribution, growth, and body morphology. Red cod consumed significantly more crabs, lobsters, and demersal fish, whereas olive cod consumed more 13 shrimp. Stable carbon isotope signatures (d C) varied significantly among colour types, but are thought to reflect baseline differences Downloaded from in d13C at Cashes Ledge (potentially useful for residence estimates). Red cod were confined to a small area of shallow water (,20 m) and were significantly smaller at age than olive cod. Body shape was used to classify colour types correctly with 84% accuracy; red cod had shorter snouts, deeper bodies, and more slender tails than olive cod. Collectively, the results suggest that red cod are resident at Cashes Ledge and represent a life-history strategy distinct from olive cod.
