A great day out in the field with WFA4313 Fisheries Management Lab. We sampled a large gravel bar on the Tombigbee River with the MDWFP Ichthyologist.

We caught 57 Frecklebelly Madtoms Noturus munitus and a Fawnsfoot mussel.

The class getting to sample. It was good and warm, low 90s but at least the water was a few degress cooler.

Matt discussing the fish with the class.

Results of an hour of intense kick electrofishing. Several darter species, a couple of madtom species, including the target species, and few shiners. A good haul!
