Figure 14.— Bloodworm length-wet weight relationships: (A) The length- 

 weight relationship for male and female bloodworms obtained during sam- 

 plings of the commercial catch, 1974-76 (all data points plotted). (B) The 

 length-weight relationship for bloodworms from all areas and all sexes com- 

 bined, collected during the commercial sampling program of 1974 (1 out of 30 

 data points plotted). (C) Length-weight relationships for bloodworms collected 

 during the 1974 samplings of the commercial catch from eastern Maine (Jones- 

 port, Beals, Addison, Milbridge, and Harrington combined) and the Sheepscot 

 River (excluding Montsweag Bay), (1 out of 10 data points plotted).
