Temporal Variation in the Physiological Responses in Largemouth Bass following Small Club Angling Tournaments

摘要: Abstract Sublethal physiological disturbances and mortality were quantified in Largemouth Bass Micropterus salmoides subjected to small, club-style angling tournaments (<30 teams) held at two central Illinois lakes. Between April October, assessed four Lake Bloomington, was Evergreen Lake. Indicators of evident following club tournaments, with some temporal variation responses. Plasma glucose concentrations increased tournament-caught fish relative reference all months, except during when did not change; plasma cortisol values among tournament also lowest October. potassium levels decreased only April, whereas chloride unaffected by tournaments. Sodium varied across but the magnitude tournament-induced decreases similar m...
