Anthony; "Sam Cooper"; "Julia Berger„ Subject: [External] Nutrien Fish Guilds Date: Monday, September 24, 2018 4:15:01 PM Attachments: image001.pnng Nutrien Fish Guild Desianations.xlsx Shane and Twyla, Sorry for the delay as I meant to also send you the updated fish guilds mentioned at the 2018 Science Panel Meeting when I sent the trawl bias memo below. I have attached the fish guild designations that were used in the 2017 Nutrien Report and highlighted the guilds that were changed from both the 2015 and 2016 reports. The guilds used in the 2015/2016 reports were designated using Fish Base based on juveniles and I think that is where the discrepancies noted by Ken Riley at the 2017 Science Panel Meeting came from since most of our fish captured by trawl/fyke nets are YOY. I went back through the fish guilds after the 2017 Science Panel Meeting and made changes as suggested by Ken Riley. The changes made are highlighted in yellow and after some back and forth, the striped bass remain classified as piscivores due their size ranges per an email from Ken Riley on 13 December 2017. Upon concurrence of the striped bass, all trophic guilds were reviewed and approved by Ken Riley, Fritz Rohde, and Jason Rock. Please call me if you would like to discuss or have any questions and/or concerns. Hope you all fared well through Florence!!
