Growth Rates

Bony tail- Growth rates were calculated based on data taken from fish pit-tagged and
recaptured a minimum of 9 months and a maximum of 24 months following release. The 9-
month minimum allowed us to capture an annual growth season while the maximum standard
(24 months) reduced the conservative influence that occurs as fish age. We had information for
31 individuals (Figure 7).
