State Finfish Management Project

State Finfish Management Project biologists participate in data collection and analysis, research, monitoring, surveying, and other management activities related to state-managed finfish species, including surfperches (especially barred surfperch), California halibut, kelp bass, and hagfish. Information gathered from fishery-independent and fishery-dependent sources may contribute to stock assessments, developing management options, and public informational aids (such as pamphlets) for state-managed finfish.
