Abstract

The study of the life histories of the trout and redfish was initiated after some careful consideration of original ground work on these fish by John C. Pearson from April, 1926, to June, 1927. The study was proposed by the Copano Research Foundation as a cooperative project between themselves and the Marine Laboratory of the Texas Game, Fish and Oyster Commission. Enough credit cannot be given Mr. Pearson for his splendid work which made possible the basis of the present study.
