areas, and during periods of low and high reproductive activity. Average fish

at 35.9 cm TL (±6.15) in the latter period (high reproductive activity).

For females, however, both the selectivity factor and the estimated modal
lengths changed significantly depending on the time of year (</span><em><span

A significant increment was estimated in the girth/perimeter ratio and
condition factor during the period of higher reproductive activity. This change
in the fish girth of females during spawning helps explain the significant
reduction in their selectivity factor estimates in August–October.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
