Fellow Fish-heads:

I hate to raise a past issue, but are there any references dealing with
the possibility for electrofishing to increase mortality?  A colleage of
mine is reviewing some lake management data that he feels may support such
a claim, but wants to review the available literature.

Thanks much!

--Mike
