Volunteers will assist our Native Fisheries Biologist in conducting a mark and recapture survey for Pahrump Poolfish. The recapture sessions are scheduled with a one week gap after the marking sessions. Volunteers will be on the shoreline for the duration of the survey (approximately from 9:45am to completion). Duties include recording data, pulling traps, handling live fish, and performing a fin clip under the supervision of the biologist. Wear secure, close toed shoes, sun protection, and clothes you don't mind getting wet or dirty. Dates are subject to change. Contact Michelle Lopez at michelle.lopez@ndow.org or (702) 668-3552 for more information.
