David’s presentation will focus on the early detection monitoring component of DFO’s Asian Carp program. The selection process for locations that will be used as early detection sites will be discussed, as well as the variety of traditional and non-traditional fishing gears and deployment methods currently being used to target Asian carps. A review of the 2013 catch data, and a brief summary of 2014 sampling, will also be discussed
