Summary

There are over 50 surveys in this series which began in 1983. The aim of these are to provide abundance indices of 2-4 year old bass. The catch density of other species taken is also recorded. The survey was undertaken twice yearly during May and September for most years up to 2009. Since then one September survey each year has taken place.

The abundance, age and length of bass is recorded from fishing stations on a standard grid in Southampton Water, the Solent, and Portsmouth and Chichester Harbours using a standard bass trawl. A QA exercise has been undertaken in February 2014.
