Abstract

Juvenile fishes are defined as immature fishes that have not yet had the opportunity to replenish the fish population by spawning. The length at which 50% of the fishes of any particular species mature varies among species and is called its Length at First Maturity (Lm). When juveniles are caught in large numbers there is an economic loss as fishermen get very low prices for the small sized young fish as compared to the larger adults.
