Hello Divers,
Starting this Saturday, January 26, we begin our annual Lingcod Egg Mass Survey! As a past participant in this survey we are hoping you’ll join in on the citizen scientist survey effort to record lingcod egg mass sightings and cover as much geographic area of the British Columbia coast as we can. Revisiting some of your favourite dive sites it a great way to contribute to this survey and help us to understand how spawning lingcod in those areas are faring. Even if you don’t see any egg masses, especially when diving in rocky boulder-type areas where lingcod love to spawn, we want to know about it; that information is just as important!
As some of you may have noticed, our website has been a bit re-vamped (with a new URL too!): submit your surveys and learn about the history of the lingcod egg mass survey on our new research website: Ocean Wise Research
If you have any questions about the survey, don’t hesitate to reach out.
Happy diving!
