Data Analysis

     In this project we are trying to determine if trawling is bad for the environment or not. Our group is looking for a difference between the number of fish caught in Middens Creek open and Middens Creek in the past two years. We are also looking at the number of fish caught in Sleepy creek closed and Straits open. More fish were caught in Sleepy creek and Straits in two years and more fish were caught in Middens creek closed that in Middens creek open.
