Interesting report. But, it's only speaking to MD and VA. A comprehensive report broken down by state from ME to NC would a very interesting read. ;-)

I can save you the effort of trying to find it, the YOY index for all of the states, except for NY, is zero. All of the migrating striped bass come from the Chesapeake bay spawn. NY has a breeding population in the Hudson river but they don't migrate very far, most never get more than 50 miles from the river.

MakoMike,

I agree with you that the YOY index has been historically measured in the Chesapeake bay. I must disclose, I am not a biologist! :-) But, I do know that striped bass spawn in other river systems. Perhaps these populations are too small to justify measuring them? I frankly do not know. Again, I am not a biologist! :-). But, the scientific/analytical part of my brain cannot help but to be curious about the missing data.

Again, I agree with you! :-).

FYI. New York state does also collect YOY data, but as I said, those fish don't migrate very far.
