Figure 5. Scale image (magnification 12.5X) from a 50-cm fish collected in June 1995 by the NEFSC from the commercial fishery, which was aged by the NCDMF as age 3 and by the NEFSC as age 2.  The first two NCDMF annuli are indicated; NEFSC considers the first mark to be an early life history event.  Workshop participants did not resolve the disagreement.
