  • Smith of NOAA said that the most recent, stock study of Gulf menhaden-conducted by scientists at the National Marine Fisheries Service lab at Beaufort, N.C.-was published in 2007, and included fisheries data through 2004.

The lab's next, Gulf menhaden assessment is scheduled for 2011, using data through the 2010 season.
