Demersal fish species assemblages and relative abundance data collected from R/V Apalachee cruise AP-3512 in the DeSoto Canyon for 2015-11-10.

The objectives of this project included using fish traps and demersal longlines to describe and examine differences in species assemblage and relative abundance of demersal fishes in the Gulf of Mexico. This dataset reports the samples collected and associated data from November 10, 2015. For some species, biological data such as length and weights are reported. Additional data include the dates, set locations (latitudes, longitudes), depth, water temperature, gear deployed and bait used. These data were collected during the R/V Apalachee cruise AP-3512.
