Characterization of Habitat and the Presence of Striped Bass Along the Southern Shore of the Gaspé Peninsula (2016)

This project aimed, among other things, to increase the capacity of the Mi'gmaq nations of Gespeg and Gesgapegiag to acquire scientific data on the striped bass and to contribute to the recovery of this population as well as the protection of its habitat.

This database results from inventories made using a seine net from the shore along the southern Gaspé Peninsula in the summer of 2016. All species caught were counted, and some specimens were measured and weighed. Thus 42 species of fish and 3 species of crustaceans were inventoried. Miguasha to Newport region for Gesgapegiag. Chandler to Park Forillon region for Gespeg.
