This most recent MICRA report provides some preliminary analyses of paddlefish movements in the Mississippi River Basin based on mark-recapture studies using coded-wire tagging methods. Both hatchery reared and wild fish have been marked since 1995. The authors report on paddlefish growth and movements, tagging and sampling effort, recaptures, and the progress made to date on the deveolpment of a GIS database that will permit spatial analysis of paddlefish movements throughout the Mississippi River Basin.
