Scientist with the FWC Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) are asking snook anglers to save their filleted carcasses and take them to a participating bait and tackle store in their area.

These carcasses provide information on the size, age, maturity and sex of the catch. This program allows anglers to participate in the collection of data regarding Florida’s premier inshore game fish. FWRI conducts applied research and provides scientific information used to manage Florida’s marine resources.
