Description:
A seasonal survey of nearshore fishes was made in the Strait of Juan de Fuca from May 1976 to June 1979. A beach seine was used for sampling nearshore demersal fishes and a townet for nearshore pelagic fishes; intertidal fishes were sampled with the use of anesthetic and a hand net. During 1976-1978, the macroinvertebrates caught incidentally in the beach seine and townet were also recorded. Data recorded for fish and macroinvertebrates were species present, life history stage (from size), abundance, biomass, food habits and presence of external abnormalities or disease.
