Summary

The August 1984 issue reported continued CMU Biological Station tagging of smallmouth bass around Garden Island as part of a long-term fisheries study.

Evidence limits

This is a public notice about research activity, not the study’s data or published findings.

Sources

  1. Reports that a CMU Fisheries Biology class tagged smallmouth bass in Garden Island and Indian Harbors as part of a 14-year study under Dr. Herb Lenon, and asks anglers to send tag, location, and fish-length information to CMU. It is a newspaper notice, not the study dataset, permit, or scientific publication. The holding institution's portal restricts automated access; the archive holds a copy of this issue and can provide it on request.
