4.3. Size structure
The size distribution of the 1,714 Arctic grayling captured during the course of the
study shows a continuous distribution of fish with no evidence of missing size classes
(Figure 3). Fish > 320 mm FL (i.e., legal‐sized at 350 TL) were not abundant (4.8% of the
total catch, as previously described).
