Job Duties: Assist with various North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries independent and dependent sampling programs, collecting data essential to assessing finfish stocks and in the development of North Carolina fishery management plans.
Major Task to be Performed: Fishery independent experience includes trawling for juvenile finfish, fishing gill nets for adult finfish and fishing long line
gear for adult red drum from various locations within the Outer Banks estuaries in North Carolina including the Pamlico, Roanoke, and Croatan Sounds. Along with collecting biological and environmental information from fishery independent programs, the intern will also assist with our finfish tagging program where they will get to tag species such as red drum, speckled trout, striped bass, and southern flounder. Fishery dependent sampling experience includes dock side sampling of commercially harvested finfish and blue crabs from a variety of fishing gear such as gill nets, pound nets, and pots which are primarily used throughout the Outer Banks estuaries during the summer season.
