The fourth Hybrid Striped Bass Funded Project. Chaired by Chris Kohler
Objectives:
1. To develop intensive hatchery production techniques for white bass and to "domesticate" white bass by producing brood stock originating from induced spawns.
2. To perfect cryopreservation techniques for white bass/striped bass semen and to demonstrate feasibility of hybrid bass production using "stored" semen in industry-type setting.

A project on feed training carnivorous fish was initiated in September 2006. This project is chaired by Anita Kelly, Southern Illinois University-Carbondale.
The objectives of this project are:
1. Evaluate strategies including harvest, transport, environmental, and husbandry, to increase survival, growth, to maximize the percent of advanced yellow perch fingerlings trained to accept formulated feeds

Participants:
The second nutrition funded project. Chaired by Robert Hayward.
Objectives:
1. Develop a least-cost diet for bluegill Lepomis macrochirus by:
(a) Evaluating amino acid availability of dietary ingredients for bluegills,
(b) Evaluating amino acid composition of bluegills,
(c) Evaluating limiting amino acid requirements of bluegills, and
(d) Making a least-cost diet formulation model available to the industry within a two-year period. Read more about Rapid Determination and Amino Acid Requirements of Lepomis Sunfish
