Abstract:: From January 1980 to January 1981 approximate monthly sampling of a unique rockfish (Scorpaenidae) fishing area on Heceta Bank, Oregon was undertaken using acoustic techniques and trawling aboard chartered commercial fishing vessels. Rankings of density of fish sign observed on acoustic transects were regressed against selected environmental variables. Acoustic abundance...
