Length distributions (percent frequency) for Summer Flounder ( Paralichthys dentatus ), Weakfish (Cynoscion regalis), Blue- 
fish (Pomatomus saltatrix), and Striped Bass (Morone saxatilis) collected from June (top row) to October (bottom row) in 
2005 off the coast of New Jersey for this study. Bars are shaded by species (as in Fig. 2). Vertical, dashed gray lines indicate 
breakpoints between size classes. Note that the j:-axis scales are different across species and the y-axis scales are different 
across months within species.
