Electrofishing

Fish samples were collected semiannually (Spring and Fall) 1999-2004 from five 150-m reaches along Little Topashaw Creek: one reach upstream from the rehabilitation project, two within the project stretch, and two downstream.  The sampling plan thus followed a before-and-after and with-and-without (BACI) design.

Samples were collected using backpack electroshockers.
