12 What about the biology?

13 This goal of this study was to investigate the biological communities present in MGP in order to better understand the utilization of MGP by aquatic species

14 Survey Dates November 8, 2012 December 6, 2012 January 15, 2013 March 23, month high-water event; not ideal for sampling August 22, 2013 (cast net only) November 14, 2013 December 13, 2013 Gear types used varied by date, depending on conditions (high velocity, low velocity, cold water, warm water, etc.)

15 Methods Gill nets Trot lines (deployed horizontally) Jug lines (deployed vertically) Crab traps Minnow traps Crawfish traps Hoop nets Pinfish traps Rod and reel Electrofishing * Water quality parameters were measured at each gear deployment

16

17 Water Quality Conditions Throughout the duration of the sampling, the surface salinity ranged from 0.1 to 0.7 ppt, while bottom salinity ranged from 0.2 to 0.8 ppt. Although this is freshwater environment, a number of brackish/saltwater species have been captured in MGP. The Secchi depth ranged from 15 cm to 80 cm. The river stage varied from 0.91 ft to 2.88 ft on the eight survey dates (US Army Corps of Engineers, 2013).

18 Species Freshwater Species Gill Net Cast net Trot-line Jug-line Crab Trap Minnow Trap Crawfish Trap Pinfish Trap Hoop net Rod and Reel Electroshocking Black crappie (Pomoxis nigromaculatis) Largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) Spotted gar (Lepisosteus oculatus) Longnose gar (Lepisosteus osseus) Channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) Blue catfish (Ictalurus furcatus) Redear sunfish (Lepomis microlophus) American eel (Anguilla rostrata) Bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus) Spotted sunfish (Lepomis punctatus) Longear sunfish (Lepomis megalotis) River carpsucker (Carpiodes carpio) Threadfin shad (Dorosoma petenense) Inland silverside (Menidia beryllina) Red-eared slider (Trachemys scripta elegans) Brackish/Saltwater Species Speckled seatrout (Cynoscion nebulosus) White perch (Pomoxis annularis) Striped mullet (Mugil cephalus) Gizzard shad (Dorosoma cepedianum) Red fish (Sciaenops ocellatus) Skipjack shad (Alosa chrysochloris) Ladyfish (Elops saurus) White bass (Morone chrysops) Gulf menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) Gafftop catfish (Bagre marinus) Fat sleeper goby (Dormitator maculatus) Bay anchovy (Anchoa mitchilli) Leatherjacket (Oligoplites saurus) Striped bass (Morone saxatilis) Atlantic croaker (Micropogonias undulates) Grass shrimp (Palaemonetes spp.) Blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) Gear Type List of captured species and gear types used

19 August 22, 2013 While conducting a bathymetry survey of MGP a cast net was deployed Nearly 50 juvenile gulf menhadden, seven black crappie, four lady fish, and three spotted gar, were captured in one cast of the cast net This suggests MGP is a suitable nursery for some fresh and saltwaer species of fish

20 Electroshocking Methodology 900 seconds of shocking, split between two locations (A and B) A start point, turn-around, and end point

30 Recreational Fisherman Utilization MGP is a fertile fishing ground for recreational fresh (largemouth bass) and saltwater species (redfish & speckled trout) Short-cut to other fishing grounds by way of the MS River

31

32 Discussion MGP is a very dynamic system At high stages, freshwater, rich in nutrients and sediment from the MS River flows into wetlands While at low stages, the flow can be reversed Numerous species, both aquatic and avian are utilizing MGP as a navigable route to and from fresh- and salt-water ecosystems, suggesting coexistence of various fresh and saltwater species

33 Future Work There is a need to conduct more frequent seasonal sampling to get a better estimate of population shifts that may occur as a result of high- and low-water events Further work is needed to better understand the entire biological assemblage of MGP Expanding our survey methods to capture avian, mammal, reptile, and amphibian species will give us a better understanding of the biological community, coexistence between species, and food-web dynamics
