The Northeast Fisheries Science Center has completed the 2025 spring multispecies bottom trawl survey aboard NOAA Ship Henry B. Bigelow, sampling 370 representative stations and 25 non-representative stations between March 07 - May 15, 2025. This long-term, fishery-independent survey assesses the abundance and distribution of marine species across the Northwest Atlantic continental shelf, from Cape Lookout, NC, to the Scotian Shelf.
