Figure 1. Log₁₀weight~log₁₀length relationship (WLR) of our 2019 Ohio river silver carp sample (n=50) compared with trendlines from both a WLR from a 2016/2017 fall Ohio River sample conducted at the Cannelton Pool, near Cloverport, KY (KDFWR ORB Technical Report, 2017) and the silver carp standard weight (W_s) equation set at a median regression line percentile (Lamer at al. 2015). Proportional stock density (PSD) length-bin trendlines were generated for this sample across respective length bins: PSD-preferred (P) (560-739 mm), PSD-memorable (M) (740-929 mm), PSD-trophy (T) (>930 mm). Note both axes are truncated for improved distinguishability of linear relationships.
