Diet of Dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) caught in the Western Gulf of Mexico, 2010-2011

This dataset contains the stomach contents of dolphinfish caught by researchers and recreational anglers in the Western Gulf of Mexico in 2011. The carcasses were then processed in the lab where stomachs were removed and the contents were identified, counted, and weighed. Additional information reported in the dataset includes the sex, standard length (SL), total length (TL), and fork length (FL) of the catch. The contents of the dataset correspond to the publication: Brewton, R., Ajemian, M., Young, P.C., & Stunz, G.W. 2016. Feeding Ecology of Dolphinfish in the Western Gulf of Mexico. Transactions of the American Fisheries Society, 145:4, 839-853 (DOI: 10.1080/00028487.2016.1159614).
