 and Robert E. Stevenson. August 1970, iii + 

 39 pp., 28 figs., 9 tables.

344. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries Tropical 

 Atlantic Biological Laboratorj' Progress in 

 Research 1965-'69 Miami, Florida. By Ann 

 Weeks. October 1970, iv + 65 pp., 53 figs. 



ABSTRACT 

 The history, facilities, and programs of the labora- 

 tory are described. The development of the tuna 

 fishery in the tropical Atlantic Ocean, mid-1950's to 

 mid-1960's, is discussed. Condensed cruise reports 

 of the research vessels Geroiiiino and Undaunted 

 are included.

346. Sportsman's Guide to Handling, Smoking, 

 and Preserving Great Lakes Coho Salmon. 

 By Shearon Dudley, J. T. Graikoski, H. L. 

 Seagran, and Paul M. Earl. September 1970, 

 iii + 28 pp., 15 figs. 



ABSTRACT 

 Since the introduction of coho salmon in Lake 

 Michigan in 1966, little information on the proper 

 care and use of the Great Lakes variety of this fish 

 has been made available to the sportsman. This 

 pamphlet gives guidelines for cleaning, butchering, 

 cooking, or storing coho. Emphasis is placed on 

 smoking procedures — one of the more popular ways 

 of preparing coho. The use of these guidelines will 

 help the sportsman prepare satisfactory products. 



347. Synopsis of Biological Data on Pacific 

 Ocean Perch, Sebastodes alutus. By Richard 

 L. Major and Herbert H. Shippen. December 

 1970, iii + 38 pp., 31 figs., 11 tables. 



ABSTRACT 

 This synopsis has information on the taxonomy, 

 life history, population structure, and harvesting 

 of a species that is being intensively fished and 

 studied by the United States, Canada, the U.S.S.R., 

 and Japan. This synopsis includes data from scien- 

 tific papers either printed in English or translated 

 from Japanese and Russian into English.

350. Research in Fiscal Year 1969 at the Bureau 



of Commercial Fisheries Biological Labora- 

 tory, Beaufort, N.C. By Kenneth A. Henry, 

 and Joseph H. Kutkuhn. November 1970, ii + 

 49 pp., 21 figs., 17 tables. 



ABSTRACT 

 Research on blue crab, conducted for thirteen 

 years at the Laboratory, is summarized briefly. 

 Progress of research in the menhaden investigation 

 — the life history, ecology, behavior-physiology, 

 tagging, and population dynamics programs — is 

 reported. Research in the Industrial Schoolfishes 

 Progi'am is reviewed. 



351. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries Explora- 

 tory Fishing and Gear Research Base, Pas- 

 cagoula, Mississippi July 1, 1967 to June 30, 

 1969. By Harvey R. BuUis, Jr., and John R. 

 Thompson. November 1970, iv 4- 29 pp., 29 



figs., 1 table. 



ABSTRACT 

 The research activities of the Base emphasize 

 the development of new techniques for locating and 

 assessing unutilized marine stocks and include 

 studies in aerial photography, multispectral pho- 

 tography, marine bioluminescence, fish oil film, 

 and sonar technology. Described are the outfitting 

 of the new research vessel Oregon II; the continu- 

 ation of conventional exploration for shrimp and 

 fish in the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean, and western 

 Atlantic; the efforts to implement the development 

 of the Florida calico scallop industry; and the activi- 

 ties of the Exploratory Data Center. 



352. Upstream Passage of Anadromous Fish 

 Through Navigation Locks and Use of the 

 Stream for Spawning and Nursery Habitat 

 Cape Fear River, N.C, 1962-66. By Paul R. 

 Nichols and Darrell E. Louder. October 1970, 

 iv -I- 12 pp., 9 figs., 4 tables. 



ABSTRACT 

 studies were made of the feasibility of using 

 navigation locks to pass anadromous fish upstream 

 during their spawning migration in lieu of installing 

 fi.shways. It was found that shad and other ana- 

 dromous fish will use the locks to move upstream 

 and locks may be used to restore, at least in part, 

 spawning i-uns above barriers. Continued studies 

 are needed to refine techniques for locking fish 

 upstream.
