During the period 1 February 1968 to 1 July 1971, the R/V Dan Moore occupied 1,038 trawl stations from Cape Romain, South Carolina, to Cape Charles, Virginia, in depths of 3 to 300 fathoms. A total of 9,734 anadromous fishes was collected. Morone saxatilis, Alosa aestivalis, Alosa mediocris were found between Cape Lookout and the North Caroliina-Virginia border. Alosa sapidissima and Alosa pseudoharengus were taken from Hatteras Inlet and from Wimble Shoals, North Carolina, to Cape Charles, Virginia. Two species of sturgeon, Acipenser oxyrhynchus and Acipenser brevirostrum, were collected. Definite seasonal differences in abundance were noted in the ocean off North Carolina. Growth and size relationship were also determined. Fishes were tagged.
