The objective of the study was to perform paired diver, trap and video-based surveys to assess species-specific reef fish abundance, and to compare gear-specific results to make inferences about the relative efficiencies of each gear (trap and video gears are used in fishery-independent surveys to support stock assessments in South Atlantic waters). The study was performed in continental shelf waters offshore (and north and south) of Cape Canaveral, FL in 2014.
