Spatial distribution and annual trends in catch of adult Common Snook.

<p>Snook were collected throughout Tampa Bay from 1996–2012 with fishery independent haul seine sets. Regions where snook were concentrated are denoted by color and the kernel density contour. All sampling grids within the contour were grouped to represent a concentrated region. The red arrow indicates the inlet spawning site. Each sampling site is denoted by a black dot. Regions with high concentrations of snook during the spawning season (A) and (B) outside the spawning season. (C) Trends in annual nominal and standardized CPUE and (D) distributions of standardized annual CPUE.
