Lepomis cyanellus), and Redfin Shiner (Lythrurus umbratilis) all exhibited significantly greater abundance (all P < 0.02) in river tributaries than reservoir tributaries.
In different species, such brown trout Salmo trutta Linnaeus 1758, mountain whitefish Proposium williamsoni (Girard, 1856), white crappie Pomoxis annularis (Rafinesque, 1818), channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus (Rafinesque, 1818), spotted bass Micropterus punctulatus (Rafinesque, 1819), bluegill
Lepomis macrochirus (Rafinesque, 1819), black crappie Pomoxis nigromaculatus (Lesueur, 1829) and white bass Morone chrysops (Rafinesque, 1820), measurement of the stomach content has been achieved by gauging stomach volume (Kimball & Helm, 1971; Gosch et al., 2009), which can also prove an effective strategy.
Bluegills (
Lepomis macrochirus, Rafinesque 1819) inhabit a wide variety of freshwater habitats (Page & Burr 1991).
The CL50 values were determined for the fish
Lepomis macrochirus (2460 (1609-3880) [micro]g [L.sup.-1]) and Oncorhynchus mykiss (1801 (1500-2200) [micro]g [L.sup.-1]) (USEPA, 2013).

Only three species, Black Bullhead (Ameiurus melas), Central Mudminnow (Umbra limi), and Green Sunfish (
Lepomis cyanellus), were collected from more than three of the seven locations sampled.
The bluegill sunfish
Lepomis macrochirus, belonging to the Centrarchidae family, has become economically important as a sport and a food fish (Janssen, 1974; Morris and Mischke, 2003).
