Two coolers of fresh Lake Ontario yellow perch in the lab! My seniors will be working these up for capstone research projects. So grateful for good relationships with anglers and seafood processors that make these projects possible. 🐠 🧪

Congrats to Kieran Smith! 👏
Since 2021, he’s built our #Aquaculture Lab & led our #YellowPerch project, supporting #Minnesota fish producers.
Kieran’s headed to a new role with collaborator Dr. John Bischof—we’ll miss him but can’t wait to see what’s next! 🐟💡 #SeaGrant

An example of our work in fisheries & aquaculture is #MNSG’s Egg-to-Market Yellow Perch project, where we are working to develop producer-scale methods for raising #YellowPerch fish from egg to market size in a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS).

Was fortunate to get out on some Connecticut ice today, but this weekend’s rain and warmup will be yet another setback. Would be nice to have a real winter again…

The broad diets of #muskie led to significant different diets from the other species, while the importance of crayfish had the same effect for #bass. On the other hand, the pike and walleye diets were similar due to their specialization on #yellowperch
On the other hand, #walleye and #northernpike really keyed in on #yellowperch in most systems, and their diets were statistically similar across seasons as a result
🧵 3/4
We’ve been chasing #yellowperch around MN lakes for the last week or so for @BemidjiState grad student project investigating potential effects of invasive Rusty #crayfish on perch growth and condition #fieldworkfriday #fishfriday #scicomm
🚨Spoiler alert🚨 it’s #yellowperch, and lots of them! Similar to previous study lakes, #walleye and #northernpike are eating almost exclusively perch, while #muskellunge eat perch and a few other larger prey species #fishpuke
Excited to see #GreatLakes fish wherever I can find them; even Ann Arbor parking garages! #YellowPerch https://t.co/YDRaBamJJf
