14 We report analyses of a dataset spanning 38 years of near-annual fishing for Antarctic toothfish 15 Dissostichus mawsoni, using a vertical setline through the fast ice of McMurdo Sound, 16 Antarctica, 1972-2010. This constitutes one of the longest biological time series in the Southern 17 Ocean, and certainly the longest for any fish. Fish total length, condition and catch per unit 18 effort...

We analyzed angling catch records for 341,959 muskellunge (Esox masquinongy) from North America to test for a cyclic lunar influence on the catch. Using periodic regression, we showed that the number caught was strongly related to the 29-day lunar cycle, and the effect was consistent across most fisheries. More muskellunge were caught around the full and new moon than at other times. At night, ...
