During the period 1987-2009 the Southwest Region (now West Coast Region) collected beach seine fish samples in the San Diego area in conjunction with eelgrass restoration projects. Data collected included location, species, length and number.

An aerial monitoring program was conducted during the period 1962 - 2007 in cooperation with aerial spotters working for the commercial purse seine fleet. Flights were conducted throughout the year to estimate abundance of pelagic fishes off California and Baja California, Mexico. Measurements were recorded for each identifiable species in 10'-longitude by 10'-latitude blocks. This data file describes which ocean blocks over which a pilot passes on a particular day and flight.
