Description

Minnow trap data obtained in the Corpus Christi Bay and Mission-Aransas Bays, Texas, USA between July and August, 2018.

Methods & Sampling

Targeted sampling of seagrass nekton was conducted at 8 sites along seagrass edges and interiors to determine whether seagrass edges may function differently than seagrass interiors as habitat. At each sites, we set 2 pairs of minnow traps. For each pair, one trap was set directly along the seagrass edge and the second was set within seagrass habitat at least 2 m from the edge. Eat trap was baited with a small handful of dry dogfood. The traps were left to soak for ~24 hours. Upon collection, fishes and invertebrates were placed into a bucket of seawater, identified and measured to the nearest mm. Each site was sampled once in July and once in August 2018.
