So excited to finally see this paper out in @ConLetters! We worked collaboratively w/ recreational anglers (@CCFRP) to sample 12 MPAs over 6 years & found evidence to further support age and size matter for fish across a temperate reserve network. doi.org/10.1111/conl.13000

New paper alert 🚨 How did rocky reef fishes in MPAs respond to the 2014-2016 pacific marine heatwave? Working with @CCFRP, we found that MPAs buffered the loss of predatory fishes & fish communities recovered 75% faster than in areas open to fishing. rdcu.be/c37TP

Do Marine Protected Areas work? Yes… bigger and older MPAs, especially in SoCal are associated with more fish biomass over time. Center of MPAs have the most biomass. ~17% of fish in MPA may spillover. @MLMLmarinesci @CCFRP #SportFishing #WSN2022

Our Comms. Mgr., Stacy Hayden, spent an exciting day fishing 🎣 for research in and around Point Lobos State Marine Reserve with other OPC staff and the @CCFRP crew. Read all about it ➡️ bit.ly/OPC-CCFRP #CaliforniaMPAs

New paper alert!🚨 What drives the efficacy of marine reserves for fish communities? We worked with the community-based science program @CCFRP to sample inside and outside 4 MPAs along the central coast of CA over 14 years. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Graphical abstract describing main results of publication. Across the top is the question, "What drives the perceived efficacy of Marine protected areas?" Below are four clip art graphics describing variables of MPA age, net primary production, fishing effort and sea surface temperature. Finally, a there is figure that shows external fishing effort best explains the spatial variation in fish responses to MPAs. Specifically MPAs with higher external fishing effort have stronger positive effects than MPAs with low external fishing effort.

Mee-ya Monnin is an @OregonSeaGrant scholar collaborating w/@MyODFW & @CCFRP to investigate an alternative form of electronic monitoring for recreational fisheries in OR. Fisheries monitoring helps to assess populations & determine sustainable harvest: bit.ly/3h4mPlg

The California Collaborative Fisheries Research Program (@CCFRP) depends on recreational experts, making it unique among monitoring projects. Because of where the anglers fish, the data the program collects is especially valuable for informing MPA policy. go.ucsd.edu/3pUvlW2

New study from @CCFRP finds that long-term participation in collaborative fisheries research programs improves angler opinions on marine protected areas (MPAs) 🎣 Check out the paper co-authored by MLML alum Jen Chiu and Dr. Rick Starr to learn more: doi.org/10.7717/peerj.10146

How does cooperative fisheries science change angler perceptions regarding MPAs? Turn out, for the better. Note that prolonged participation increases chances of positive opinion change. @OPC_California @CCFRP @Scripps_Ocean @CaliforniaDFW peerj.com/articles/10146

S/O to Captain Tom @TMattusch, @CCFRP, and the @hulicatfishing crew for always taking the time to clean up the big blue! Stopping for deflated balloons (so many balloons), plastic bags, and apparently abandoned crab pots too🎈🗑️🦀🌊

Fieldwork in 2020 may look a little bit different, but our @CCFRP scientists always get the job done! Even under the masks, we can tell it’s all smiles from MLML grad students Jackie Mohay, Katie Cieri, and Rachel Brooks and post-doc @slziegler220 😊🐟

I don't always hold fish, but when I do, I prefer kelp greenlings. @CCFRP

Oh and we had a surprise visit from Risso’s dolphins on our way back to port. Pretty great first week on the water! Thanks @CCFRP.

DYK: California halibut are sometimes ambicolored? This means they have dark coloration on the normally white blind side. Completely ambicolored halibut have a "hook" (depression) behind the eye near the dorsal fin. #WhatFishWednesday 📷: McKeever 1958, CA Fish & Game

Did you know that the California Collaborative Fisheries Research Program (@CCFRP) is headquartered at MLML? CCFRP scientists & volunteer anglers run a tag and release fishing program to evaluate the effects of Marine Protected Areas on fish populations along the CA coast 🎣
