Abstract:ObjectiveTo determine the spawning seasonality of two highly targeted jacks (Carangidae; Giant Trevally [known in Hawai’i as ulua aukea] Caranx ignobilis and Bluefin Trevally [known in Hawai’i as ‘ōmilu] Caranx melampygus) within Hawai’i through a collaborative effort with local fishers.MethodsBy working with volunteer fishers, we collected gonad samples for Giant and Bluefin trevally throughout a 15‐month period on four of the main Hawaiian Islands.
