dc.description.abstract | Scope and Method of Study: Young-of-year bluegills (Lepomis macro-chirus), green sunfish (Lepomis cyanellus), and bass (Micropterus salmoides) were collected from two Oklahoma farm ponds to study first year growth. Measurements were made on scale and body lengths. | |
dc.description.abstract | Findings and Conclusions: Scales were found on bluegills 16 millimeters in length. This value agreed with the length at scale formation calculated from the body scale relationship. Growth of bluegills and bass apparently ceased in late October. Many of the sunfish collected were less than two inches long at the end of the growing season. First annuli would be very difficult to determine on scales from such fish. | |
