 Partyboat Fishery of the Salton Sea and Catch of Orangemouth Corvina
This could account for the dominance of larger corvina in the 1971 and 1972 catch; a fact supported by the partyboat logs for these years which showed a doubling of the average weight of corvina.
In 1971 and 1972, there was a marked upward shift in the size composition of the corvina, a sharp decline in the total catch of corvina, and a drop in angler success, suggesting that the rise in salinity may be adversely affecting corvina recruitment.
The mean water temperature was compared with the mean catch of corvina per angler hour and the regression line was fitted by the method of least squares (Figure 1).
